Lampfish of Twill Synopsis

On the unforgiving coast of Twill, a boy is sucked into a fantastic adventureThe country of Twill has a notoriously treacherous coastline: rough, rocky, and primed for shipwrecks and drownings. In the salt-scarred port town of Twickham, the locals are dependent on fishing. Everyone pitches in, devising new ways to catch fish and crabs without falling prey to the dangerous rocks and waves. Of all the fish that dart around their deadly shore, none is more prized than the lampfish, a glowing creature whose bones provide the hooks that sustain life on Twill. It takes a group of men to land a lampfish, but once in a lifetime, a hero comes along who can do it single-handed. And Eric wants to be the next champion.Eric, an orphan since infancy, has become mesmerized by the swirling Cantrip's Spouta deadly whirlpool where he has recently spotted a colossal lampfish. Trying to catch that glowing beast will take him on a magnificent journey into the sea and beyond, deep into the darkest parts of himself.This ebook features a personal history by Janet Taylor Lisle including rare images and never-before-seen documents from the author's own collection.
