 Rating:  - The perfect find for any beachcomber with a love of water!Sixteen-year-old Corwin has spent all of his life foraging the land for money and his next meal. So, on a beach-combing excursion, when he stumbles upon a unique shell that holds a rare beauty, he is absolutely convinced that it will sell for a pretty penny, and give him the riches that he's dreamed of, and longer for since childhood.

In the previous book, the sixteen year old mermyd Niniane (called "Nia" for short), discovered betrayal and conspiracy in her underwater home of Atlantis. With the escape of an evil mermyd named Ma'el and the Farworlder (powerful, intelligent squid-like creatures) that he is telepathically connected to, Atlantis was overthrown and Nia the last living Farworlder were thrown ashore. Read More Rating: - This is really good.I love this series, and this book is definitely as good, if not better, than the previous book. It's about a young mermyd named Nia who's just been infected by a Farworlder from the city of Atlantis, and she knows that if she doesn't find the Farworlder and complete the Naming, she'll die. So she goes up onto the human world and meets a boy named Corwin. Corwin had found the shell containing the young Farworlder, and had also been infected by him, but King Vortigern's sons had stolen ...

I think the reason why Nia is patient and stuff is because she is somewhat ill, like, from being out of water and the expeirience of being joined with a prince. Anyhow, this is a good book and a good series. It was nice to have it told from a different point of view (Corwins). Rating:  - ReuionThis book was pretty cool. Although this time, the story was told from Corwin's point of view instead of Nia's. In this book though, Nia has changed too much. In the last book, Ascension, she had a really bad temper, and now she's all patient and stuff. Its not a change that happens very often. Other than that, it was really cool. The whole reading minds thing is really creepy though. I would reccommend this book, especially if you like mermaids.
