Author Paul Christian’s new book ‘The Little Book of Mermaids’ is out now.
The book is described as a ‘deep dive’ into the murky and magical world of mermaids (and mermen).
Across the world legends of piscine peoples abound as disparate and unconnected civilisations tell of mysterious water-dwelling folk and creatures.
From sinister finfolk, to killer kelpies in Scottish lochs and wondrous witches in enchanted lakes, the book takes in mythology and legends from Atlantis to King Arthur and studies tales of crypto-zoological creatures.
It also tells us much about ourselves; our drives, our loves and lusts through the ages and our fears of our life-giving and life-ending relationship with water.
Established history, mythology and crime author, Paul Christian, provides scientific rationalisation and mythical wonder in equal measure, as the role of mer-people is catalogued and explained.
The book is out now on Kindle and paperback versions and can be bought on these links: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B082YLN1P9/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_c_api_i_.uH.DbH06MA96
