About this series
The future is flooded, the fall of human civilisation partnering the risen sea level. Taking to the oceans to survive, a bioengineered remnant of Man lives a primitive, yet harmonious, life undersea in the tropics. But the Cetari are not alone in staking a claim to sapience on drowned Planet Earth. Challenging them is the numerically superior Piawro, a race of humanoidal amphibians jealous of the prosperous Merfolk.
Sentenced to die for allowing the unpreventable murder of his monarch’s stepdaughter by the Amphibs, Durgay the Fisher escapes Bounty Reef and his fate as the retaliatory Merking foolishly wages war on the islanders. Joined by a renegade mermaid, he finds new purpose when, spurred on by legend of a Creator residing in the Far North, the fugitives’ embark for chiller waters. Racing against the clock counting down to Cetari extinction, can the escapees provide hope for their embattled kith and fin, or will the quest for salvation end in disappointment and death for all concerned?
