Destined to be a global phenomenon, an exciting new mermaid series - Percy Jackson for girls.

When Serafina, a mermaid of the Mediterranean Sea, awakens on the morning of her betrothal, her biggest worry should be about reuniting with handsome Prince Mahdi, her childhood crush. Instead she finds herself haunted by strange dreams foretelling the return of an ancient evil, and dealing with the deaths of her parents as assassins storm the betrothal ceremony, plunging the city into chaos.

Led only by her shadowy dreams and pursued by the invading army, Serafina and her best friend Neela embark on a quest to avenge her parents' death and prevent a war between the mer nations. In the process they discover a plot that threatens their - and our - world's very existence.

To be honest I did pick this book up a few times before I bit the bullet and actually got it. And I am so glad I did.

This book is delightfully in depth, descriptive and original in it's conception of a magical world beneath the waves that humans, mostly, are unaware of.

At the heart of it all is Serafina, a princess who feels she has a lot to prove and is betrothed to a prince who though handsome, seems less than devoted.

In a space of 24 hours tragedy hits and her world is turned upside down. In order to save her kingdom and those she loves most she must travel the depths to complete a prophecy long thought forgotten.

This story has the makings to be epic. The world Jennifer has created filled with magic, mermaids, witches and rogues is lovingly thought out, the characters colourful and relatable.

If you know someone who loves mermaids, get them this book, they will not be disappointed.

I cannot wait to read book 3 in the Waterfire Saga series : Rogue Wave.
