Mer - Paperback

by Samantha Amy Mansell (Author)

Set in an ominous underwater world marred by human

destruction, the stories in Mer unsettle traditional mermaid

mythology - beyond gender, beyond beauty, beyond romance.

Merfolk have ruled their watery domain for untold years, but

humans threaten it with deadly danger. Stranded and alone,

Odel haunts an abandoned lake. Ondine drags her prey to a

graveyard of their own making. Unzel pursues a threatening

boat. Nothing left to lose, the merfolk will do whatever it takes

to defend their home - no matter who gets in their way.

In her debut collection, Samantha Amy Mansell weaves a

series of evocative tales about vengeance, loss and the right to survive.

Mer asks not what, but who, lurks in the deep.
