As greed attacks their worlds, only the melding of magic and courage

can ensure their survival.

Kreh-ursh, a young ocean nomad, haunted by the loss of a close friend,

embarks on a risky coming-of-age journey

on a remote, supernatural island.

Having saved her younger brother from a toxic slick,

a surfer named Jade is tormented

in her dreams by a disembodied voice.

While a vast weather event gathers strength, it weakens the barrier between dimensions,

allowing evil to seep through and poison the seas.

Kreh-ursh, Jade and their companions must brave treacherous oceans, unearth ancient secrets

and battle forces both human and spectral to prevent their worlds' collapse.

Yet, the danger they face threatens not just their existence but all life itself,

unless they have the courage to act.

Book 1 in 'Seeking the Jewel Fish' â' a parallel-world fantasy

where magic battles for nature's survival.

"... takes me back to the joy of reading Anne McCaffrey!"

Industry Reviews

"This beautifully written story about a boy called Kreh-ursh and a girl called Jade whose very different worlds are slowly being drawn together takes me back to the joy of reading Anne McCaffrey as a child. K. Eastkott populates Kreh-ursh's world with strange and wonderful creatures and yet the sea and the islands that the boy moves between seem as real as anything in our world, so completely has he imagined it. At the beginning of the story Kreh-ursh is about to set out on a challenging initiation, called sea-nomad-becoming, grieving over the death of his friend. Jade's life is also ruled by love of the sea, but both worlds are threatened by the same ecological disaster. The theme is a timely one. I can't wait to read the next book." - Jule Owen, author of "The House Next Door" trilogy
