I enjoyed this book but found it a little hard to read it reads like a play and uses initials instead of names each time someone is talking It would have been easier for me to read if it had the names instead of the initials that I had to go back and reference a few times With that being said the story itself was captivating flowed well and kept my interest It really was a good book The story is told mainly from the view point of Homeland Security walking us through the trials and tribulations of saving the world from the Sea Hag and the Russian government when the plans for Project Kraken emerge and are put back into use 9781483443829 What a profoundly terrible book 9781483443829 This book was so much FUN I really enjoyed the creativity of how it was formatted as a crime scene reports this lead to some hilarious one liners Just a fun fun story and a great read Highly recommended 9781483443829 This book was an interesting book to read It s written in the form of government reports and reads like a play Mermaid fan would still enjoy it For me I would get slightly confused by the constant use of initials and have to keep going back to the guide provided in order to remember who it was that was speaking That was the only downside for me Otherwise I did enjoy this book won as a GoodReads Giveaway 9781483443829 Operation Mermaid Project KrakenJoseph McGarry paints a beautiful mythical tale with a futuristic twist Taking us all the way into 2026 we read into this amazing event as a transcript from the government After a flash across the world women everywhere are turning into mermaids and no one can seem to find out why The transcripts prepared by agents of homeland security We follow a group of women that the agents sought out when this event happened The agents test the women and slowly see what they can do. Operation mermaid books They discover other mermaids and an old box in a shipwreck at the bottom of the ocean Another secret of the government was a project called Kraken All other evidence of this failed project was destroyed or so they thought A doctor working on the project took the project to a new level of evil The mermaids and homeland security have to work together to keep all of us safe And I thoroughly enjoyed this story other than the grammar and spelling errors would love to get a paperback copy Joseph asked for reviewers on a website I frequent and I signed up to review this book So I want to say thank you to Joseph for giving me the chance to read and admire this gem that might be overlooked on otherwise 9781483443829 I wasn t sure quite what to expect when I started this book It s not the kind of book I normally read given the format in which it s written It s told in a series of transcribed government reports and although it makes for an unusual read compared to a typical novel it had it s fun quirks like multiple uses of redacting information and changing names and so on It felt tongue in cheek and a clever way of getting around having to name everything and being able to blacklist information in the name of national security It wasn t without problems however and I m solely speaking of the technical side of things for now The first problem was the fact that it took me quite a while to get used to the abbreviations TW AS HW MB CB DK DB RW WS SBwhen multiple abbreviations are appearing it can be hard to keep track of it I had to make a document on Dropbox so that I could refer to it from my phone or computer with notes on who each character was their age and profession I think it would ve been much easier if the author had simply used their first or last names instead Having Ted Angela Holly and so on in place of the abbreviations would have saved me a lot of time and hassle I can t fault the book too much since it could just be due to the fact that I m not the best at remembering details like that It didn t help however that sometimes the names would be switched or the wrong initials would be used There were several instances where I wasn t sure who was speaking and one occasion where I noticed that the abbreviations for who was supposed to be speaking had been switched Now for the story itself The premise itself was intriguing and what drew me to the novel in the first place An incident occurs that has a worldwide effect There s a noise and a bright flash of light and women all over the world of all ages find themselves transformed into mermaids Usually it happens to those that are wearing tails or have some kind of connection to mermaids already The government tries their best to keep a lid on it but so many were transformed that it becomes impossible Ted and Angela agents of Homeland Security do their best to uncover the mystery and work with a group of recently transformed women Along the way they meet several other women who have been transformed as well as some children and learn about the mermaids history the involvement of another species the sirens and possible Russian involvement Things start falling apart and getting weird when they learn about Project Kraken which was a former experiment from the US Government that was believed to have failed and then scrapped The plans survived and the sirens along with the Russians are trying to use it to cripple and enslave all sea life including other mermaids and devastating life on land It was their testing of the Kraken project that led to the Great Transformation and the Second Transformation that followed a few months later due to a second test. Operation Mermaid epub file Let s cover the basics first The first bit was the time period it was set in The year it takes place is 2026 although the end reports are from 2027 and recap the story as a whole Normally I don t mind too much when a novel is set in the near futurehowever there doesn t seem to be any advantage to setting it in this era and in fact it actually caused a disadvantage later in the story As they investigate it becomes clear that the Russian government is involved somehow and they begin to dub it Cold War II saying that if things go poorly it could become a hot one Unfortunately this lacks any real drama or motive the only reason given in the novel is that Russians have wanted to even the score since the last Cold War and want to rule the world Again no actual reasons are given and in the end it feels like a comical bond villain plot despite numerous assurances from characters in the story that This is real life not a movie Why did the Russians wait so long and why do they want to rule the world There s no context given no motivation given and the whole incident is brushed aside at the end The actual cold war was filled with years of tension of back and forth politics of propaganda on both sides This is just an entire country wanting revenge It s hard to care about why it s happening if there s no reason given There s also nothing really in the story that feels like it takes advantage of being set in the near future With all of the developments in recent years and over the past couple of decades the idea of a government cover up concerning mermaids seems like it would be a bigger deal than it is The idea that the Russians would be trying to build up to a new Cold War would be huge and that would be impossible to cover up on that kind of scale I mean at one point they have a discussion about classified information with over 10000 mermaids in attendance If you re going to tell me that at least one person there wouldn t leak the information to the public and several of these mermaids are reporters I should add then the story loses all credibility There s attempts in the story to keep things under wraps but then they pull stunts like having a conference with that many mermaids and it becomes hard to accept If the author wanted a cold war scenario setting this story in the time of the actual cold war probably would have been a better choice Using the Russians as villains because they want revenge is fine but without an actual compelling reason behind it it just seems silly The plot treats itself too seriously and it s a bit jarring otherwise A larger problem is that there s too many side characters that are otherwise useless to the story as a whole The most glaring examples are David Broghammer the boyfriend to mermaid Michelle Bergin and Stuart Barton boyfriend to mermaid Callista Bergin They don t do anything in the story They re introduced they say a few lines they go for a swim and then they don t do anything or impact anything in any way except for the fact that they get married to the girls at the end which is just mentioned as a side note That wouldn t be so bad except Michelle and Callista are or less pointless in the plot as well They don t ever accomplish much and indeed there s actually a large wasted opportunity with the two characters While they were present for many events in the story they didn t really do much They swim around they talk to characters they do a few things at the end but I barely know anything about them or why they wanted to be mermaid performers how it was for them to adjust so completely or any of the downsides involved Their relationship with their boyfriends is almost nonexistent so there s no connection there on any kind of level If they were removed from the story entirely nothing would really change at all Before the Great Transformation they were mermaid performers After the Transformation sweeps the world now they re real mermaids and they keep up business as usual learning that other transformees in the past have already been doing so Their arc is or less pointless and flat We never really get to know the characters at all We see a little bit of their performances but otherwise they re side characters in the larger plot This is true for many of the side characters many of whom are introduced then or less swept aside in favor of the larger plot There s a reporter an employee of the Padres a banker and so on all of them could have had fascinating perspectives on what this new life meant for them the struggles of adapting but instead they re minor voices at best and they barely impact the plot The only major character is Dina Karama Dr Dina Karama ends up playing a major role though by the end of the story I didn t care much for her at all She begins the story as a former professor who has spent a good deal of her career disproving the existence of mermaids Surprise surprise mermaids have existed for centuries and she s transformed into one during an interview with Michelle Callista and Holly In her first swim in the ocean she ends up loving the experience so much that she never wants to turn back and hooks up with a random merman in the area named Ryan Ryan shows up a couple times but is otherwise useless However Dina is now pregnant and has superstrength because she s drawing strength from both herself and the merbaby this is credited to the special bond between mothers and offspring but they might as well have said magic since that s essentially what it seems like. Mermaid bande annonce Later in the story it turns out that the main villain the Sea Hag is actually her mother who was thought previously to be the second in command It was kind of a weak plot twist We already knew she was a villain Revealing her as the main villain instead of the second in command isn t much of a twist It also turns out that two other characters are Dina s sisters and also the daughter of the Sea Hag But this doesn t matter at all in the plot and barely factors into it so I m not sure what the point of that was either an uncomfortable trend for the majority of questions I have There s a huge emphasis put on the importance of mothers and daughters and their connection Some mermaids have a psychic connection because of this closeness and it seems to give them a certain degree of superstrength at times It s mentioned over and over that this is a very special connection and the women feel it instinctively Using a mother s connection with their offspring is fine but it felt over emphasized and never really paid off in the end There s also never any mention of a merman having any kind of connection like that and indeed mermen hardly factor into the story even though they do exist. Science fiction operation mermaid Dina lacks such a connection with her mother and when her mother is left to die feels nothing I didn t feel anything either because why did it matter I didn t care about her mother except for sirens and cause the tides to rise and devastate the coastal cities I m not sure how an EMP would accomplish that It would kill all the electronics in the area sure but as far as I know an EMP doesn t effect organic life nor would it effect the tide levels at all I can handle vague technobabble fine enough but the author was specific enough to make me question it and too vague to make it sensible The sirens as villains are kind of pointless They have the ability to control others with their songs but the government has a counteragent to it and nothing major ever happens as a result In the end they re back to being imprisoned like they already were Why they keep them around at all isn t ever explained and they don t seem to serve a purpose Even the mermaids don t like them There s a group called the Ancient Ones which seem to be godlike beings consisting of people like Neptune Aphrodite Poseidon and so on They show up to give a few vague warnings do a few tricks and warn that the heroes need to save the day or bad things will happen There doesn t seem to be a limit to their power And in the end I was left wondering why they couldn t just interfere directly and point out where Project Kracken was the entire time or simply wipe it out There was no reason given If you re going to have godlike beings that don t end up solving the day you at least need to give a reason why And even then at the end Aphrodite gets involved and helps with the final battle Why she doesn t help isn t explained or why she got involved in the first place Finally there s the fact that the story just glosses over what could have been the most interesting part of the book and indeed what I thought the story would be about the world changing event that is the mermaid transformation. Invasion of the mermaids In the book it happens and by the end over 100000 women worldwide have been transformed We see a few glimpses of how things have changed and how people are coping and the President gives a few vague addresses but other than thatit has no effect on the world Women that are transformed are all fine with it No one is ever upset at having been turned into a mermaid Over a hundred thousand women transformed and hardly a single downside is mentioned No one is upset at the transformation Everyone is thrilled everyone loves it there s no complications at all It s secretly been their dream to be closer to the sea because that s where man evolved from To paraphrase being a mermaid let s them return to the sea where they belong without having to give up their humanity to do so Nothing really changes People keep their jobs become CEO s of companies get married and start families Even when the government reveals that they ve known about mermaids for years and there s an entire species out there nothing changes No one seems upset about a cover up no one tries to do anything Everyone seems to accept the mermaids as they are and the transformed mermaids seem happy. Operation mermaidw ww This is so totally unrealistic With that many people effected there would be a lot of chaos People would be FREAKING OUT People would be hunting them worshiping them proclaiming them as demons and so on People can freak out over the smallest things in our world Something on this scale would have a huge shake up And you can t tell me that a single person wouldn t be upset at the change They re forced to completely change their lives to fit this new existence and no one is upset at it What about the people that were transformed and don t live close to the ocean or those who had professions that required active movement or women in third world countries So much of this is glossed over ignored or lumped into The President gave a speech it s all good now The kind of material you could generate from such a massive change could fill an entire series and here it s treated as a plot point and otherwise useless It s a story that had a lot of potential but it ended up not going anywhere I wanted to like it because I liked the premise and I like stories with mermaids but there isn t enough here for me to recommend it or to have enjoyed it too much By the end of the story I was ready for it to end The story lacked a human connection It was too impersonal It s not even the fault of the format It kept the characters at arms length It tried to give a message about the importance of maternal love but it fell flat in the narrative and felt overemphasized and over exaggerated The plot with the sirens and Russians felt like a James Bond plot but without the fun and energy that comes with such things It takes itself too seriously while using outlandish ideas that could ve been fun with the right tone It s not terrible but in the end this feels like a first draft than a finished project 9781483443829 The Mermaids are Coming This was an intriguing mermaid tale science fiction with history and fantasy interwoven in the story It was also written in a unique style in the form government reports by Homeland Security Mermaid lovers will be mesmerized by the premise of large numbers of women transforming into mermaids 9781483443829 Operation Mermaid The Project Kraken Incident is a wonderful mermaid book. Epub operation mermaid download The story is presented in a form of documents from Homeland Security which is a unique idea and it flows well This futuristic sci fi fantasy story is about mermaids and sirens that the government has known about and has even had treaties with for decades The Russians and one of the power hungry mermaids sirens the Sea Hag has a top secret plan to destroy sea life using a underwater device She tests it out a couple of times and when she does the result causes many women and girls all over the world to turn into mermaids The agents and a handful of these mermaids work together to try to stop the Sea Hag The story is fun as the mermaids experience life as a mermaid meet others of their kind difficulties on land and pregnancy The story has lots of action twists surprises great plot fun and well developed characters and a great ride Loved the way it was laid out and all the imaginative bits it throws in A very enjoyable read I received this book for a honest review 9781483443829 Hi everyone This is my book I normally don t like this but I thought this might help promote the book I won t say too much about the book here I don t want to reveal any spoilers I am looking for reviewers to get legit reviews Email me at jmcgarry2011 yahoo.
