Our Illumicrate March theme is . . . FANTASEA!
Journey under the sea, where the kelp grows tall and green, to find fantastical treasures unseen.
Our March Illumicrate book is an adult fantasy debut! In a half-flooded city, humans live alongside creatures of the water. As three different women—a half-siren, an aristocratic water dragon, and a sea-witch—are caught up in a game of right and wrong, peace and unrest, and life and death, they must decide whether the city is worth saving . . . or whether it should be left to drown.
