Science fiction on a planet that's mostly water, inhabited by harsels, telepathic whale-like creatures which some humans can bond with. History is told by itinerant storytellers, like Teller, who in her old age adopts a homeless boy who becomes her apprentice and lives with her and her harsel and learns her secrets. There's some sex, both gay and straight, but nothing really graphic.
