Somewhere Beyond the Sea
Arthur Parnassus has a good life, built from the ashes of a bad one. He is the head of a strange orphanage on a remote island, and hopes to soon adopt the six dangerous and magical children who live there. He works hard and loves the children with all his heart, so that none of them will know the loneliness and torment he experienced when he was an orphan on the same island, a long time ago.
But he is not alone: the love of his life, Linus Baker, a former assistant at the Department of Magical Youth, supports him unconditionally. As do Zoe Chapelwhite, the island's fairy, and his friend, the mayor Helen Webb. Together, the four of them will do everything they can to protect the residents of the orphanage.
However, one day, Arthur is called before an inquiry committee to testify about his dark past and finds himself leading the fight for a future for his family and for all magical beings.
At the same time, a new magical child wants to join the island's inhabitants: a child who draws strength from calling themselves a monster, a word that Arthur has worked so hard to avoid in his orphanage…
Welcome back to Marsyas Island!
This is Arthur's story.
