Set on the wild Cornish coast, the series follows Sapphire and her brother Conor as they discover Ingo, a hidden underwater realm of Mer people, tides, and old magic. Across five novels, loyalties are tested and the boundary between land and sea grows ever thinner. Dunmore's lyrical prose and richly imagined mythology have made this an enduring favorite for young fantasy readers. This complete paperback set brings the whole story together in one collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Ingo Chronicles began with Ingo, introducing Sapphire and Conor, two Cornish siblings whose father vanishes at sea, leading them to discover Ingo, a hidden underwater world governed by the Mer people. As the series unfolds through The Tide Knot, The Deep, The Crossing of Ingo, and Stormswept, Dunmore expands this submerged mythology, weaving in family loyalty, first love, environmental change, and the pull between human life on land and the ancient call of the ocean. Sapphire is drawn deeper into Ingo through her bond with Faro, a Mer boy, while Conor's own ties to Ingo complicate the siblings' relationship and challenge them both to choose where they truly belong. Storms, floods, and shifting Cornish tides become more than backdrop; they mirror the emotional currents pulling the characters between two worlds. Dunmore, an acclaimed novelist and poet, brings a poet's ear for language to this fantasy series, grounding fantastical elements in vivid descriptions of coastline, current, and creature. Each installment raises the stakes, moving from quiet discovery to genuine peril. Widely read by middle-grade fantasy fans, the series is praised for its atmospheric writing and thoughtful exploration of belonging and loss. This five-book paperback collection lets readers experience Sapphire's full journey between Cornwall and Ingo from beginning to end, making it an ideal introduction for new fans and a nostalgic reread for longtime followers of the series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete five-book paperback set of Helen Dunmore's acclaimed Ingo Chronicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLyrical, atmospheric fantasy ideal for readers ages 8-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA magical underwater mythology unlike typical fantasy series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat gift for birthdays, holidays, or summer reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for classroom libraries or family read-alouds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne continuous story across all five books, ideal for binge-reading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIngo — Sapphire and her brother Conor discover a hidden underwater world after their father disappears at sea.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Tide Knot — A devastating flood reshapes the boundary between Ingo and the human world.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Deep — Sapphire journeys further into Ingo's underwater cities, where new loyalties and dangers await.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Crossing of Ingo — A perilous voyage tests the bonds between the human world and the Mer.\u003cbr\u003e\nStormswept — The series closes with a storm-tossed adventure concluding Sapphire's journey between two worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nHelen Dunmore (1952-2017) was an acclaimed English novelist, poet, and short story writer, and the author of the bestselling Ingo series along with more than twenty other children's books.
