The Ingo Chronicles - The Deep (The Ingo Chronicles, Book 3)
Stunning reissue in a beautiful new cover-look of this third novel in the critically acclaimed Ingo Chronicles.
A devastating flood has torn through the worlds of Air and Ingo, and now, deep in the ocean, a monster is stirring. Mer legend says that only those with dual blood – half Mer, half human – can overcome the Kraken.
Sapphy must return to the Deep, with the help of her friend the whale, and face this terrifying creature – and her brother Conor and Mer friend Faro will not let her go alone…
