Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
'A tale of love, trust, and betrayal. Delicate and dangerous.' JULES ARBEAUX
A GREAT LOVE. A PALACE BENEATH THE SEA. A DEVASTATING BETRAYAL.
A doomed love story created the city of Ys, it's fitting that another one would end it . . .
Nolwenn is a lighthouse keeper, and her life's purpose is to defend her beloved city of Ys. But when a dangerous tide threatens Ys, the queen instead tasks Nolwenn with collecting rare seasilk - enough to shield the city from the deadly sea monsters that threaten it.
Determined to fulfil her task, Nolwenn searches for the seasilk, only to be attacked by the very sea monsters the queen warned her about. She's saved by Morvan, a sea-dwelling korrigez with the torso of a human and the tail of a fish, who drags her deep beneath the sea to the coral palace of Ys-below. Although terrified and homesick, Nolwenn can't deny that Ys-below is strange and beautiful - and so is Morvan. And the more time Nolwenn spends below the surface, the less she is sure she wants to leave . . .
As danger draws ever nearer and Ys remains precariously unprotected, Nolwenn must decide between her heart and her home.
As lush as it is lyrical, this is an atmospheric retelling of the legendary lost city Ys, following two lovers and their connection between two different worlds - one on land and one beneath the waves.
