Synopsis

This book includes two long tales which drink from the oral tradition. In ‘A Serea da Illa Negra’, Sara will manage, through some conches in the service of the Lady of the Waters, to end the curse of an evil siren who threatens the sailors of her village. In ‘A néboa negra’ (‘The Black Fog’), Blanca saves her parents and the valley’s population from the spells of the Black Fog, thanks to her magical triskelion.

Scary and mysterious tales, imbued with darkness and inspired by a legendary world related to the Galician literary and oral traditions.
