What to expect

From World Fantasy Award-winning author Tasha Suri comes The Isle in the Silver Sea, a heart-shattering romantasy of sapphic longing, medieval folklore and a love that spans the centuries.

In a Britain fuelled by stories, the knight and the witch are fated to fall in love and doom each other over and over, the same tale retold over hundreds of lifetimes.

Simran is a witch of the woods. Vina is a knight of the Queen's court. When the two women begin to fall for each other, how can they surrender to their desires, when to give in is to destroy each other?

As they seek a way to break the cycle, a mysterious assassin begins targeting tales like theirs. To survive, the two will need to write a story stronger than the one that fate has given to them.

But what tale is stronger than The Knight and the Witch?

'Fiercely tender, wildly imaginative, and deeply smart, The Isle in the Silver Sea is an ode to the power of stories themselves--both to shackle us to our destinies, and to free us from them. One of my new all-time favourites' Alix E. Harrow

Critics Review

Fiercely tender, wildly imaginative, and deeply smart, The Isle in the Silver Sea is an ode to the power of stories themselves--both to shackle us to our destinies, and to free us from them. One of my new all-time favourites
Alix E. Harrow
The Isle in the Silver Sea is a magnificent fantasy. Unapologetically queer, fiercely inclusive, and full to the brim with the extraordinary magic of stories, this is truly a masterpiece.
Sangu Mandanna, author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches
Set in a world where story is magic and magic is story, The Isle in the Silver Sea swept me off my feet with its lyricism, spellbinding romance, and vivid characters who breathe, love, and bleed. Isle is gorgeously folkloric -- and really puts the lore back into folklore. This book is a bit of spellcraft and Suri is definitely a witch.
Brigitte Knightley
A magnificent story about the strength of stories, full of grand love, adventure, and beauty! Completely captivating!
Sarah Beth Durst, NYT bestselling author of THE SPELLSHOP
A glorious feat. With yearning that seeps through the very pages and an utterly spellbinding world, The Isle in the Silver Sea yet again attests to the depths of Tasha Suri's storytelling
Chloe Gong, New York Times bestselling author of Immortal Longings
The Isle in the Silver Sea is haunting and achingly romantic. Suri has crafted a wise, magical tale of chivalry, morality, and the special kind of hope that comes from creating our own stories and futures, spied through the lens of an epic love that spans lifetimes
Francesca May, author of Wild and Wicked Things
Tasha Suri laces every page of The Isle in the Silver Sea with magic of her own. Simran and Vina's love story had me by my heartstrings, and wishing I could keep exploring this uncanny version of England
