Of Poseidon Review

I am not a big fan of mermaids, syrens, etc. but I have to admit that I really enjoyed this book. The action was enough to keep you on your toes and though things were hinted at, nothing was given away. Even the ending was enough to get you geared up to want to read the second book RIGHT NOW!

The story begins with Emma on the beach with her friend, when her friend is attacked by a shark. Galen is also at the beach but he is one of the water and he can't help but notice Emma's violet eyes which are a sign of mer-people. He becomes intrigued by this girl even through the disaster which happens at the beach and he can't help but think she is the one who is meant to be his brother's mate. No matter how much is sister and he try to get her to transform to her mermaid self, she can't seem to find her fins. But she has to be what he thinks she is because she has the gift of Poseidon. (She can communicate with fish) In addition to that problem,the more he is around her, the more he feels pulled to her. This will have severe consequences when it comes time to get her to marry his brother.

This is one that everyone should give a try. There is a little language but no sex or drugs. Basically it is a pretty clean book, I would recommend it for 8th grade and up.
