Merrowkin
Acerca deste livro eletrónico
What she does know is that her father is the town drunk who tells anyone who will listen that his wife hadn't left him fourteen years ago. No, she was a mermaid, and returned to the sea to save her people and all of Ireland from an evil tyrant.
Meri wishes he would stop telling that story.
Everything changes during a school trip to the Cliffs of Moher. First, Meri learns that mermaids were once called merrows, and their children are the merrowkin. While at the Cliffs she glimpses a golden tower on the waves, and learns about a city that lies at the bottom of the bay between Ireland above and the land of gods below, a barrier between the two worlds that rises once every seven years. Suddenly, her father's stories aren't the strangest things she's heard.
Accompanied by her friend, Aodhan, Meri embarks on a quest to discover what really happened to her mother, and hopefully bring her home.

Jennifer Allis Provost is a native New Englander who lives in a sprawling colonial along with her beautiful and precocious twins, a dog that thinks she’s a kangaroo, a parrot, a junkyard cat, and a wonderful husband who never forgets to buy ice cream. As a child, she read anything and everything she could get her hands on, including a set of encyclopedias, but fantasy was always her favorite. She spends her days drinking vast amounts of coffee, arguing with her computer, and avoiding any and all domestic behavior. Find Jenn on the web here: http://
