"A lovely, lyrical fantasy which takes the fate of the hanged maids of the Odyssey and weaves something brand new. A story overflowing with emotion and full of magic." Jennifer Saint, bestselling author of Ariadne and Elektra '"Gorgeous, tragic, and timeless, Underwood's Lies We Sing to the Sea makes an age-old story feel new again. This is Greek tragedy at its best: sweeping in scope yet deeply intimate in characterization. This book will break your heart." -- Grace Li (Sunday Times bestselling author of Portrait of a Thief) "LIES WE SING TO THE SEA is a wondrous tale of love, death, and sacrifice. The vivid characters give depth and adventure to a story with roots in classic Greek mythology." -- Natasha Bowen (New York Times bestselling author of Skin of the Sea) "Sarah Underwood's classical reimagining is woven with pure magic: salt-laced myths, a plot that slowly unravels like a tapestry, and vivid characters who are destined to steal your heart.
A scintillating, beautiful debut." --Rebecca Ross, internationally bestselling author of A River Enchanted and Sisters of Sword & Song "Rich, immersive and utterly compelling. A stunning achievement from Gen Z's answer to Madeline Miller" Laura Steven, author of Society for Soulless Girls "Lies We Sing to the Sea is a lyrical, elegant debut bursting with imagination and heart. Underwood expertly weaves a tale about the inevitability of fate--and the love that makes us rail against it anyway. Bittersweet and wholly cathartic." --Allison Saft, New York Times bestselling author of A Far Wilder Magic "Sarah Underwood gives a brave, ferocious voice to a character who richly deserves one. Filled with knife-sharp banter, smoldering romance, and twists that will tear your heart to pieces, this is the story about one of Penelope's doomed maids that was always waiting to be told. " - Heather Walter, author of the Malice duology.
