The Mad Voyage of Prince Malock (Prince Malock Duology) (Volume 1) 1e uitgave

Prince Tojas Malock, Crown Prince of the island of Carnag, is chosen by the sea godess Kano to go on a dangerous and potentially lethal voyage to the island at the edge of the world, World's End. Confident in his own skills, Malock assembles the finest crew money can buy and sets out into the mysterious southern seas beyond the edge of the Northern Isles. But when he loses almost the entire fleet in a month, leaving a single ship struggling to remain afloat and a ragtag crew that wants to be anywhere but, Malock realizes that he is in way over his head. It doesn't help that the information about the southern seas provided to him by his lover?an aquarian woman named Vashnas, the only mortal to ever reach World's End and return alive?turns out to be less-than-accurate, causing him to wonder what else she might be hiding from him, and why. Kinker Dolan, an old fisherman from the small and obscure island of Destan, has a secret. It's a terrible secret, a secret that fills him with guilt and shame in equal measure. Yet when he attempts to flee Destan to escape his guilt, he ends up getting drawn into Prince Malock's mad voyage, where he must use all of his wits and knowledge to keep his life?and his secret?safe. With mortal-eating gods, murderous aquarian pirates, and betrayals within the crew itself, will Prince Malock, Kinker, and the rest of the crew of the Iron Wind make it to World's End alive? And even if they do, they are unlikely to comprehend the true purpose of the voyage.
