The Starless Sea
Random House UK
Lorsque Zachary tombe par hasard sur un livre mystérieux dans la bibliothèque de son université, sans couverture ni nom d'auteur, il est plus qu'intrigué. Il l'est d'autant plus lorsqu'il découvre qu'une scène de son enfance qu'il n'a jamais racontée y est écrite. Il se lance alors dans une quête éperdue.
Entre récit de pirates, cités perdues, et société secrète, "La Mer sans étoiles" est un livre d'une rare poésie à l'imaginaire débordant. Une pure merveille !

This door leads to a subterranean labyrinth filled with stories, hidden far beneath the surface of the earth.
