Arthur Parnassus has built a good life on the ashes of a bad one. He's headmaster at an orphanage for magical children on a peculiar island, assisted by the love of his life, Linus Baker. And together, they'll do anything to protect their extraordinary and powerful charges.

However, when Arthur is forced to make a public statement about his dark past, he finds himself fighting for those under his care. It's also a fight for the better future that all magical people deserve. Then, when a new magical child joins their island home, Arthur knows they've reached breaking point. The child finds power in calling himself a monster, a name Arthur has tried so hard to banish to protect his children. Challenged from within and without, their volatile family might grow stronger. Or everything Arthur loves could fall apart.

**Somewhere Beyond the Sea is a story of resistance, lovingly told, about the daunting experience of fighting for the life you want to live and doing the work to keep it.

'An enchanting sequel about found family' - The New York Times**
