The Starless Sea By Erin Morgenstern

"A boy at the beginning of the story has no way of knowing that the story has begun."

From New York Times bestselling author Erin Morgenstern comes a timeless tale. A love story, a fairy tale, an adventure, set in an underground world. It is a place of pirates, painters, lovers, and liars. A place of ships that sail upon the starless sea.

It is a story made of many. Stories as fleeting as wisps of smoke, told in sculptures of snow or in clouds. Stories told through taste or through feelings, rather than through words alone or by words at all.
