Fathomless by Jackson PearceMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
An interesting take on "The Little Mermaid". Really liked the way it ended for the most part... a good little twist there at the end, too. Some comeuppance as well. A book about choices -- about how no matter the circumstances, we can choose how we react, how we feel.
I love fairy tale re-tellings and am always interested to see how authors bring them into the Twenty-First Century. The re-tellings where they just write MORE are great, but it is fun to see the imaginings of a fairy tale in modern times. This was a good mix of just using the basic plot elements and some of the magic from the original story.
