From Little Stack

Stuck on an ark, in the middle of the sea, a group of survivors struggle to survive. Their kingdom flooded, leaving them with few resources. And worse, they are surrounded by dangerous creatures hungry for their flesh. Among them is Iraxi. Pregnant, she realizes her child might not be human. And her fate may be more horrifying than she ever imagined.

Publisher Description

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.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
