Love this...
"Seaborn is a unique fantasy; it’s unlike anything else I’ve read. Chris Howard tells a compelling story of merpeople and of two women who struggle to become their own woman (or mermaid) in the face of opposition...Howard does a fine job of describing the beauty and danger of the sea, and the culture of the Seaborn. Their society is largely based upon ancient Greece, as is their magic. Chris Howard clearly knows a great deal about ancient Greek mythology and occultism...
It’s unique, and never feels like a warmed-over version of anything else. It’s for anyone who loves the sea, and anyone who likes stories about young women striving for independence and their own power..."

This is a really good review. It sounds like you have struck a nerve with something new and fresh.

Thanks, Chad! I hope so. It is interesting to see what some reviewers call out as important--and how different readers see things I never intended.
