Poseidon's Children: Atlantis Lost : Book One of Poseidon's Children (Series #1) (Paperback)

One ocean.

Two species.

Three thousand years of war...It is a hundred generations since Atlantis, island of the merpeople, sank beneath the waves during its final battle with Athens.

Ever since then, the merpeople have been in hiding.

The adults live on the open ocean, far from the ships of men.

The young mers grow up close to shore, hiding in air-filled caves by day, and coming out to hunt at night.

Only when they pass the tests that mean they have come of age can they swim out to sea and join their parents.

Now, humans have destroyed the home-cave of the last young mers in the Atlantic.

They must find a new place to hide, but what secrets lurk in the hidden caves? Only courage can guide them as they face the dangers of the ocean - and the nets of men.
