Produktbeschreibung

Let's face it.

About seventy-five percent of the world is covered in water - and of that water nearly ninety-seven percent of it can be found in the sea. Maritimers will tell you that there is a story for every wave that has ever washed upon the shoreline.

Here are seven of them.

"In the Dark and the Deep" offers a very haunting yarn of World War 2 convoy duty and a sailor who made and kept a terrible bargain.

"Harry's Mermaid" introduces you to a group of homeless men who catch something that MIGHT be a mermaid. If that doesn't tell you enough about this story just try and imagine what Steinbeck's CANNERY ROW would read like if it had been written by HP Lovecraft.

"I Know Why The Waters of the Sea Taste of Salt" is a tale of an Okinawa-based Japanese Air Force suicide pilot and his encounter with a sea monster - of sorts.

"Finbar's Story" is a dark fantasy tale of the deeper currents that eddy and flow within the deep quiet currents of a man's cold heart.

"The Woman Who Lost Her Tooth From Laughing Too Loudly At The Sea" is a quiet little fable of salt water, tears and regret.

"Between You-Know-Who and the Deep Dark Blue" is a story of the last bargain on earth.

This collection begins with a bargain and ends with a bargain - which sounds like a heck of a bargain to me.

Autorenporträt

Steve Vernon is a storyteller. The man was born with a campfire burning at his feet. The word "boring" does not exist in this man's vocabulary - unless he's maybe talking about termites or ice augers. That's all that Steve Vernon will say about himself - on account of Steve Vernon abso-freaking HATES talking about himself in the third person. But I'll tell you what. If you LIKED the book that you just read drop me a Tweet on Twitter - @StephenVernon - and yes, old farts like me know how to twitter - and throw in a link to the Kobo version - and I'd be truly grateful. Reviews are ALWAYS appreciated - but I know that not all of you folks are into writing big long funky old reviews - so shout the book out just any way that you can - because I can use ALL the help I can get.
