This volume serves as a stark counterpoint to whimsical aquatic lore, focusing instead on the visceral and emotional turmoil of merfolk. It is best suited for readers who enjoy anthology formats with established horror voices like Lackey and Wilber. However, it does not suit those seeking lighthearted fantasy or traditional ghost stories without psychological depth. Critics looking for tight narrative cohesion may find the variety jarring, while enthusiasts of dark folklore will appreciate the exploration of envy and rage in underwater settings.
