Tress of the Emerald Sea: A Cosmere Novel (Secret Projects)

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes a rollicking, riveting tale set in the Cosmere universe--a standalone adventure perfect for fans of The Princess Bride.

The only life Tress has known on her island home in an emerald-green ocean has been a simple one, with the simple pleasures of collecting cups brought by sailors from faraway lands and listening to stories told by her friend Charlie. But when his father takes him on a voyage to find a bride and disaster strikes, Tress must stow away on a ship and seek the Sorceress of the deadly Midnight Sea. Amid the spore oceans where pirates abound, can Tress leave her simple life behind and make her own place sailing a sea where a single drop of water can mean instant death?

I picked up this book based on the recommendation that it was like The Princess Bride, which I loved both the book and movie of. I'd say that recommendation was fairly accurate with regards to the narrative style and basic plot, but the setting felt very original and creative. I absolutely loved Tress and the group of friends she made along the way.

Wholesome heroine’s journey. Unique lore, great story, great characters, and well written. Easily consumed but not easily forgotten.

One of Sandersons secret projects. The tone of the writing is a lot of fun and very jovial. It reminds me of a fairytale
