The Mermaid of Lake Superior Paperback – January 30, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
"Wake up, mermaid. Balance has been disrupted, and we must fight. Nature as we know it needs restoration. We need our water back."
Lake Superior is home to hundreds of shipwrecks . . . but only one mermaid. "H" doesn't know where she came from. She doesn't even know her full name. That hasn't stopped her from having a good time: she's spent the last few decades evading tourists, befriending local wildlife, and sharing spectral martinis with shipwrecked spirits. But there are whispers in the waters, rumors of a strange new threat killing whitefish by the hundreds. Out of the deep blue nowhere, H finds her North Shore paradise under attack. H must unravel her origins and harness long-dormant powers to lead Gitchi-Gami's residents (furred, finned, and ectoplasmic alike) in the fight to reclaim their waters. It will take unexpected allies, divine intervention, and pie . . . lots of pie.
Includes maps as well as numerous charming black-and-white illustrations by artist Jill Myer.

Book Description
Lake Superior is home to hundreds of shipwrecks . . . but only one mermaid.
About the Author
Aurora Lothbrok was born and raised in Northern Minnesota. She began her lightsaber training at Michigan Tech, where she studied biology, and continued onward to the University of Iowa to study pharmacy. Her love of the outdoors and penchant for adventure took her north to Alaska, where she currently resides on Dena'ina Elnena land. She's been told that she looks like she belongs on the set of The Big Bang Theory. Inside Aurora are two wolves―one is a hobbit who wants second breakfast and the other wants a real-life Jurassic Park on the island of Adak. Her favorite recreational activities include roller derby, photography, and sci-fi marathons with her husband and pets. In fact, it's a miracle this book was even written, as the dogs occupy important lap real estate and make using a computer quite difficult. Aurora loves bears and sparkles, and she swoons with affection for a strong female lead. Fermented tea may be her one true weakness.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2024This was a very fun read with great factual references. I loved the blend of fact and fantasy. It made me want to visit the shipwrecks of Superior. I highly recommend this to anyone who has even thought of visiting Superior. (There is a reason why she is named that, she has earned that title) :)
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2024I loved this book so much that I have read it twice in quick succession! The use of descriptive words, puns and details is truly entertaining. The plot is captivating, and you will love this Mermaid and her friends to the moon and back! As I was reading this, my first ever reading of a fantasy novel, I envisioned this book worked into the perfect computerized animation movie! You will enjoy learning more information than imaginable about beautiful Lake Superior and the surrounding spectacular venues, as well. Yes, I highly recommend The Mermaid of Lake Superior!

- Reviewed in the United States on June 21, 2024Ms Lothbrok has done an amazing job of combining beautiful, inventive storytelling and earth saving requests into a gorgeous story about H the mermaid saving Lake Superior.
You’ll giggle over all the pop culture references, (I lost count) and wish you had your own Blue, George, Gabby or Nigig to snuggle. Also, I want to be able to see and talk to the ghosts and animals in my neighborhood.
Wonderful story. Highly recommend. Adore it.
