Review by Kevin Webster
The Cyber Mermaid is a witty expose on Internet Dating. Punctuated throughout with poignantly naïve illustrations, the reader is guided through every conceivable scenario of cyber-love. Illuminating and insightful, Jane Air’s satirical ‘take’ on this otherworldly existence brings home the very real trials and tribulations facing singletons everywhere. Timely and imaginatively portrayed in extended verse, The Cyber Mermaid is a ‘must’ read for anyone about to dive into the murky waters of the intimate internet. If you are about to dip your toes in this absurd world of sharks and mermaids...read this book first, it could be your lifeline!
