Klappentext

VALOUR IN THE FACE OF FEAR Hester Orn, captain of the Valour, has two problems. One, her mentor is dead, and so is her dream of sailing to Antarctica. And two, her infinitely vexing rival, Lord Septimus, has discovered her secret weather magic. Then Hester meets Charlotte Bailey, the widow of her mentor. A past trauma haunts Charlotte, and she longs to be brave enough to follow in her late husband's footsteps. Together, the two women set sail to make the first crossing of Antarctica. But Lord Septimus pursues them to the Weddell Sea, eager to claim the glory for himself. And when the Valour becomes trapped in the ice and Hester's magic attracts vicious shape-shifting sea gods, they are forced to work with the rival crew. Sparks fly between Hester and Septimus, while Charlotte starts to fall for the Valour's engineer. As crew members disappear into the ice, Hester and Charlotte must face their fears and reveal long-kept secrets, or watch their friends perish in the frozen wilds.A romantasy retelling of Shackleton's Antarctic expedition with strong female leads, weather magic, rivals-to-lovers romance and terrifying gods.
