Fable (The World of the Narrows, 1)
LIMITED FIRST PRINT RUN―featuring spray-painted edges, while supplies last.
Welcome to a world made dangerous by the sea and by those who wish to profit from it. Where a young girl must find her place and her family while trying to survive in a world built for men.
As the daughter of the most powerful trader in the Narrows, the sea is the only home seventeen-year-old Fable has ever known. It’s been four years since the night she watched her mother drown during an unforgiving storm. The next day her father abandoned her on a legendary island filled with thieves and little food. To survive she must keep to herself, learn to trust no one and rely on the unique skills her mother taught her. The only thing that keeps her going is the goal of getting off the island, finding her father and demanding her rightful place beside him and his crew. To do so Fable enlists the help of a young trader named West to get her off the island and across the Narrows to her father.
But her father’s rivalries and the dangers of his trading enterprise have only multiplied since she last saw him and Fable soon finds that West isn't who he seems. Together, they will have to survive more than the treacherous storms that haunt the Narrows if they're going to stay alive.
Fable takes you on a spectacular journey filled with romance, intrigue and adventure.

I received an ebook copy from St. Martin's Press through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review and let me tell you, I was not disappointed! This is the first title I have read from Adrienne Young and will not be the last. I adored this book so much that I finished it in a day and today I preordered a signed copy! Action, adventure, and intrigue abound in this epic tale and while it does end with a cliff hanger I don't care because the sequel will be out in March and I have a feeling it will be well worth the wait. This YA, pirate romance is where it's at!

I was so excited to have been approved for Fable on Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I love me a good story that takes place on the seas. This one did not disappoint. When Fable finally gets a chance to escape from the island her father abandoned her on four years earlier she does everything in her power to do so. The first few chapters of the book include her falling into the water on multiple occasions but in the end she finds herself on the decks of the Marigold captained by a man named West.
Now it's up to her to prove herself to the captain and his crew in order to retain passage across the narrows to confront her father. Secrets will be revealed along her journey and she finds herself falling in love with West. Fable also has a secret of her own that if found out could lead unsavory characters looking to use the powers she possesses to gain control of the seas.
I enjoyed the adventures Fable and the crew are faced with. She does everything she can to show she can pull her own weight and that she can be trusted. She endures the pain of losing her mother and abandonment by her father but it doesn't stop her from overcoming whatever gets thrown her way until betrayal strikes close to home. The pacing is a bit slow at first but once Fable finds herself on the Marigold things really pick up and the ending will surprise you!
I definitely recommend this YA Fantasy to any lover of pirate books!
