A young thief races to recover a powerful, long-lost super-weapon in this first Heirs of Ash novel set in the magical world of Eberron For years, rumors have spoken of the Legacy, a device beyond imagination and the brain child of the brilliant Ashrem d’Cannith. Some say it was a weapon; others claim it was a portal to other worlds. But in Cyre, on the Day of Mourning, Ashrem and his Legacy vanished in the greatest cataclysm the world had ever seen. Now, a struggling young thief named Seren stumbles upon a clue that may lead to the lost Legacy. But what begins as a routine burglary has the authorities out to arrest her, ruthless spies out to kill her—and one of the heirs of Ashrem trying to save her. To stay alive, Seren and her new crewmates on The Mourning Dawn must find Ashrem’s Legacy before it falls into the hands of her pursuers. For if they fail, Eberron will plunge into another century of war.

A major new novel by the award-winning author of Good to a Fault and The Little Shadows, about two sisters who live aboard a merchant ship on a fateful voyage through the South Pacific. "Up from underneath comes a blue-black swell, a whale rising in a long arc. Kay waits, hovering in the difference between herself and the creature." What is the difference between ourselves and other humans? Between human and animal? Where does that difference persist in our minds? These are the questions Marina Endicott, one of our most beloved storytellers, explores in this sweeping, intoxicating novel set on the Morning Light, a ship from Nova Scotia sailing the South Pacific in 1912. Thea and Kay are half-sisters, separated in age by more than a decade. After the death of their stern father, head of a residential school in western Canada, the elder sister, Thea, returns east for her long-awaited marriage to the captain of the ship. She cannot abandon her younger sister, so Kay joins her, and together they embark on a life-changing voyage around the world. At the heart of The Difference is one crystallizing moment in Micronesia: Thea forms a bond with a young boy from one of the islands, and takes him as her own. The repercussions of this act reverberate through the novel--forcing Kay to examine her own assumptions about what is forgivable, and what is right. Taking inspiration from the true story of a small boy who was brought on board a Canadian sailing ship in the South Seas, Marina Endicott shows us a vanished world in all its wildness and wonder, and its darkness, prejudice, and difficulty too. She also brilliantly illuminates our own times through Kay's preoccupation with the idea of "difference"--between people, classes, continents, cultures, customs, and species. A breathtaking tour-de-force by one of our most celebrated authors, a writer with the astonishing ability to bring a past world to vivid life while revealing the moral complexity of our own.
