"Get your damn hands off me or I'll give you a social disease you wouldn't believe...!"
This is a pretty crazy Australian made for TV film. Throw in every film cliché you can mention, some extremely bad 80's fashion, hilariously bad dialogue, speed boats, car chases and you get the Aussie equivalent of Miami Vice with sharks... well almost. It's great fun and there's never a dull moment. Don't expect much shark action though. Apart from a couple of brief scenes at the beginning and the end the sharks are barely in it. Not that it really matters. The idea that a mad genius(?) is holding a city to ransom with the threat of sending 100's of sharks to their coastlines to decimate the public is fun but the loop hole is massive (erm... just stay out the bloody water!). When our leading lady is hanging off the feet of a helicopter it is so glaringly obvious it's a stunt double (twice the size of the actress and more 'blokey' looking). I laughed my ass off all the way through. An added bonus is the soundtrack, featuring the likes of Split Enz, INXS and The Hoodoo Gurus and The Church among others. Trashy fun. Neat!

Songs of the seas (siren tales book 1)
By Evelyn Belle

Description
Nerine, blessed by Poseidon, leads the god's sirens with unmatched skill and loyalty. Her life is dedicated to her position, with no room or desire for love. This wasn't always her life, but she's determined to thrive in the ocean, just as she did sailing the horizons above.Bruno is as powerful and twice as deadly as the sharks he commands for the sea god. A shark does not take denial well. Especially from a beautiful siren who changed his fate. He would kill for Nerine, if he doesn't kill her first. When Poseidon ascends to Olympus, Nerine and Bruno are thrown together, charged with protecting the sea. They clash like waves in a storm, but they both have the same goal--protect their people and please their god.But when a ship from Nerine's past appears, Nerine is forced to question her loyalty to her god, and Bruno must decide where his heart lies.

I love any book involving the Greek gods!
This was a brilliant take on Poseidon and his sirens!
Little sorry it only went up to 8 chapters hopefully the rest will follow soo!
