Tress of the Emerald Sea by Brandon Sanderson, illustrated by Howard Lyon, follows Tress, a young woman whose quiet life on a remote island in an emerald-hued ocean ends when her closest friend, Charlie, is taken away by his noble father and lost to disaster. Determined to rescue him, Tress secretly boards a ship and is drawn into a wider world of spore-filled seas, lethal magic triggered by water, and ruthless pirates. As she seeks the feared Sorceress who rules the Midnight Sea, Tress must adapt from an unassuming islander into a capable protagonist navigating warlike tensions and dangerous alliances. This standalone fantasy adventure blends high-stakes magic, romance, and heroic discovery within Sanderson’s broader Cosmere setting.
