Book Synopsis: Denizens of the Deep is an anthology exploring what may be living – or hiding – in the darkness of deep water. Ranging from historical fiction to fantasy to science fiction, twenty-one authors take you beneath the wave to discover the secrets of those who dwell there.
A woman follows her husband into the sea to the cave of a siren. A scientist looks to the ocean for the secret of immortality. Divers run into unexpected finds under the waves. Underwater cities struggle to keep the water out. Mermaid treasures are lost and found, and so too are souls.
Featuring poems, flash fiction, short stories, and illustrations, these twenty-nine tales will introduce you to the wonders – and dangers – of the deep.
