"Arrogant and often merciless, Lira and Elian are not totally likable, especially in their careless disregard for life, human or otherwise, but there's an appealing prickliness to their confidence, magnified by their quippy dialogue. As narrators, Lira and Elian have distinct voices, but for all their swagger, both characters are struggling under the expectations of their parents and in their role in war that started long before they were even born. The world building is deft, and the spectacular ending is a happy one for Lira and Elian, but it will leave readers blissfully wanting more." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Stellar world building and nonstop action will keep readers hooked on this twisted reimagining of "The Little Mermaid." -- Booklist Online "Readers who enjoy dark fairy tales of The Little Mermaid persuasion will sink into this bloody tale with pleasure."-- RT Book Reviews, "Arrogant and often merciless, Lira and Elian are not totally likable, especially in their careless disregard for life, human or otherwise, but there's an appealing prickliness to their confidence, magnified by their quippy dialogue.
