"My name is Larkspur, and I am an Elemental." My people use the power of the earth to sustain life and defy our enemies. I should be at my father's side as a royal princess. But as a half-breed, bastard child, that isn't going to happen. As an Ender, one of my father's Elite guards, it's my job to do as I'm told. When my older sister is sent as an ambassador to the realm of the water elementals--the Deep--I have no choice but to accompany her as her bodyguard. With the death of the water elemental's King, a deadly battle for the throne begins; a battle we are forced to choose sides in. There are only a few things I know for sure. The ocean may be beautiful, but lurking in its depths are monsters to fear, the water I tread is teaming with danger and I am on my own. With no one to help, and no one to trust, I have to find a way to keep my sister safe, and stop a civil war. But the secrets within the Deep are far darker than any of us realized. Welcome... welcome to the Deep. Performed by Yasmin Tuazon, Laura C. Harris, Rayner Gabriel, Drew Kopas, Zeke Alton, Rebeccas Sheir, Triya Leong, Christopher Williams, Colleen Delany, Taylor Coan, Amanda Forstrom, Christopher Graybill, Daniel Llama, Katie Leigh, Matthew Pauli, Christopher Davenport, Holly Adams, Danny Gavigan, Rob McFadyen, Christopher Walker, Matthew Schleigh, Marni Penning, Michael John Casey, Lise Bruneau, Matthew Bassett and Bianca Bryan.

The series isn't really anything new in the genre, the same old fantasy tropes (The Chosen One, quest through different lands, evil foe who has spread through the land and must be defeated, etc) appear throughout - but Mayer hits all the right notes with her portrayal.
Breakwater sees Lark take on the Undines (the Water Elementals) traveling to their home, the Deep. Lark was badass in this. She was brave and smart and determined to fight for what's right not what is easy. Belladonna redeemed herself in this novel. Yeah, she can be a right bitch but she also has been shaped by her circumstances - and frankly her circumstances have sucked. There are also a lot of references to sexual harassment and rape which is rather confronting and probably fairly unnecessary to the degree they're included.
Ash and Lark's relationship is a mess. There's a bit of romance. A bit of friendship. And a lack of honesty and trust which impedes both. Peta was funny, as was Finley. Requiem was creepy af. There was heaps of action and I flew through the pages. Overall an entertaining read. ( )
