Serafina has a lot of expectations to live up to. As the future Queen of the mermaid kingdom of miroma, she’s got a lot on her shoulders and doesn’t feel quite ready to take on the crown. But one night a mysterious dream comes to her, a calling from the Vraja, ancient water witches thought to be a myth. Yet the dream keeps repeating itself, each time more real than the last, warning of a monster known as Abbdon coming to terrorize the oceans. Then in a rush, both her parents are suddenly killed in an attack on the kingdom, and Serafina finds herself swimming for her life. Death riders are now everywhere. Kingdoms are going to war. At the threat of Abbadon becomes nearer and nearer. Will Serafina accept her quest, along with 5 other mermaids to restore peace to the seas? Or will chaos reign as it once did before? In this thrilling quartet of the Waterfire saga series, Jennifer Donnelly takes us through the journeys of Serafina and her 5 mermaid companions as they fight to defeat the evil trying to crash over the seas. The series has four books, Deep Blue, the start of it all, Rogue Wave, the game plan, Dark Tide, the height of the battle, and Sea Spell, the conclusion. I personally LOVED this series, and was lucky enough to be reading them as they were still coming out. And let me tell you, it was most definitely a series worth waiting for. I remember almost bouncing off the walls before the release date came out and how happy I was to finally get the next one, sitting down almost immediately to start reading. Please consider reading this mind catching series, which will always have pat of Mērē dila, mērī ātmā.

~FUN FACTS~
- Two years after Donnelly finished her study of literature at the University of Rochester, her debut for children’s books, Humble Pie, was published.
- Donnelly recently came out with a new book, Stepsister, based on the classic fairytale—you guessed it—Cinderella. I’ve yet to read it, but I already know it will be great.
- Film rights for Stepsister is already being handled and is said to be in the works so I guess I’d better get reading!
I really hope you love this series as much as I do, because now I love the ocean even more than before. Please look into these four awesome books and until then maybe try to go to the beach lol idk.
