About the book
Tress lives on the Rock, a small island in the Emerald Sea, one of twelve colored seas of spores on the planet Lumar, where ships sail on spores that grow dangerously when wet. She collects cups from passing sailors and is close to Charlie, the duke's son. When Charlie is sent away to a royal marriage and then goes missing, captured by the Sorceress in the perilous Midnight Sea, Tress leaves home to rescue him. Her voyage takes her among smugglers and pirates, with the cabin boy Hoid narrating.
