Drowned Country
by Emily Tesh

Plant magic, coast magic, thirst magic: the charming, haunting follow-up to Emily Tesh’s lush, folkoric debut, Silver in the Wood.

The conclusion to the World Fantasy Award-winning Greenhollow Duology

“A true story of the woods, of the fae, and of the heart. Deep and green and wonderful.”—Naomi Novik

“The tender, frustrated romance between the dramatic Henry and taciturn Tobias shines. Tesh’s second outing is elegant, evocative, and irresistible.“—Publishers Weekly, starred review

“Complex, dreamy. . . . A beautiful tale full of quiet courage, magic rooted in the soil or the curling branches of trees, and a strong, determined queer love.”—Booklist, starred review

He had forgotten the size of the man.

Even the Wild Man of Greenhollow can’t ignore a summons from his mother, when that mother is the indomitable Adela Silver, practical folklorist. Henry Silver does not relish what he’ll find in the grimy seaside town of Rothport, where once the ancient wood extended before it was drowned beneath the sea—a missing girl, a monster on the loose, or, worst of all, Tobias Finch, who loves him.

In this stunning sequel to Silver in the Wood and the conclusion to The Greenhollow Duology, Emily Tesh once again invites readers to lose themselves in the story of Henry and Tobias, and the magic of a myth they’ve always known.
