Athlen laughed and kissed him again. Tal sank into it—happy, loved, and unafraid.
In Deeper Waters is a chaotic, life-threatening adventure of trials, tribulations, and thrills galore. We see magic, pirate, mermaids, shapeshifters, death and murder and burning ships. And the two main characters just so happen to be two boys falling in love, with complete and utter acceptance from everyone around them, because there are no standards to attraction.
It was so refreshing to read such a riveting tale from Lukens, and find solace in the strongly highlighted romantic relationship between Tal and Athlen in the same manner cishet people are afforded by most books. I adored every moment.

Takes place in a fantasy setting with somewhat unconventional monarchy structure. Men and women have equal power, non-hetero relationships are not discriminated.jenarae's review against another edition
