Love the graphic that The Storygraph generated this year!

This is a prequel to the fable and Namesake books. It‘s about Saint and Isolde, how they met and some of their story. However, it did not have enough story for me. I want more!!
It‘s basically how Saint started out, he has a really crappy ship and is smuggling gems. You get to see other ports and some familiar characters.
For June - my #bookspin is any audiobook and #doublespin is the tagged. I believe it‘s a prequel to Fable and about her father when he was younger.
I loved this prequel to The World of the Narrows series. The author took a lot of care with the characters and Saint was a very charismatic person. The plot was well done too. I already have the next book in the series on hold. 4.5⭐️

Adrienne Young has done it again with Saint! It holds up to Fable and namesake
I could read anything in this series. I absolutely love this series! This book was almost as good as Fable. The way that the author talks about the ocean, and makes the ocean its own character, will never get old with me. I hope this world never ends! 5/5
I had a slow start to January reading, but I finished 2 books this past weekend; Saint is my first finished book of 2023.
I really enjoyed Young‘s Fable duology, so I was excited for this prequel.
Similar magic/fantasy/pirate elements as is present in Fable. The main characters were well drawn, but there was no clear antagonist. Female MC Isolde escapes and is on the run from her mother, but that conflict is completely off page.
A spin-off from the fabulous books Fable and Namesake (previous reviews) this one--might be my fave? It's the story of Fable's father & mother, a mysterious relationship in the first 2 books & the story of Saint's risw to becoming a feared and ruthless trader on the Unnamed Sea. Adventure, danger romance, gems & loveable characters, Young spins an imaginative tale allowing me to marvel at her stories. For best results, read them in order. YA
