They say Mackerel Sky was founded when Captain Burrbank first saw Nimuë the mermaid and forgot the sea. Stricken by love, he moored his tall ship and made camp on the highest cliff, hoping to forever gaze upon her beauty. That camp became a settlement, the settlement a town, the town a community both blessed and cursed by their tempestuous affair.

This is the best modern fantasy novel I’ve read/listened to. Thank you MZ.
The Moorings of Mackeral Sky starts off as a story about modern life in a small town on the coast of Maine. The characters and their struggles with grief and loss and the hardships of everyday life are so poignant. I felt so deeply for them all.
Interspersed with the stories of the townsfolk are the legends of the town’s own history involving mermaids and the sailor who founded the town.
The ending is truly masterful, weaving all of this lore and these lives together into a very emotional modern fantasy payoff.
MZ’s characterizations in the audiobook are *perfect* midcoast Maine accents and matter-of-fact turns of phrase. Her prose and poetry is lyrical and alliterative and a joy to listen to.
I know this is going to be one of those books I go back to again and again.
