**Winner of the Shirley Jackson Award** **Winner of the Pulver Award An Ignyte Award Finalist** **A** Library Journal **Editor’s Pick! A** Den of Geeks **Best Books of 2021!** ** ** Flowers for the Sea **is a dark, dazzling debut novella that reads like** Rosemary’s Baby **by way of Octavia E. Butler** *We are a people who do not forget.* Survivors from a flooded kingdom struggle alone on an ark. Resources are scant, and ravenous beasts circle. Their fangs are sharp. Among the refugees is Iraxi: ostracized, despised, and a commoner who refused a prince, she’s pregnant with a child that might be more than human. Her fate may be darker and more powerful than she can imagine. Zin E. Rocklyn’s extraordinary debut is a lush, gothic fantasy about the prices we pay and the vengeance we seek.
