Dissonance of Bird Song

"Dissonance of Bird Song is a haunting and original mixture of Cornish-folk-fantasy. Eseld is a formidable heroine, a song-weaver turned warrior on a quest through an enchanted world where magic clings like myst. Beaumont's novel evokes the unique and beautiful setting of Cornwall, mingling these observations of the land and seascapes with praiseworthy worldbuilding."-Tracy Fahey, author of They Shut Me Up and New Music for Old Rituals

In the storm-riven wilds of ancient Cornwall the sea's whisper will charm us all.

Dissonance of Bird Song is the folkloric-fantasy tale of Eseld, a song-weaver fleeing her home to cure the sacred birds of her people and save her sister. Locked between the lies of land-dwellers and the snare of an ancient sea queen, Eseld must fight to find her own path. Amidst a storm of betrayal and heartbreak, what will Eseld sacrifice to save the ones she loves?

Readers who enjoyed Lucy Hounsom's Sistersong, Naomi Novik's Uprooted, and Natasha Bowen's Skin of the Sea will love Dissonance of Bird Song.
