The Tussle for the Ocean

This is the first book of the award-winning children’s novel, The Cunning King Series.

When Tortoise, the greedy land king moves to expand his reign to the ocean, he encounters a reigning Mermaid who would rather die than allow him to take over her territory. Tortoise, in his usual scheming nature, attempts tirelessly to overthrow the Mermaid and rule the water animals in her stead. But Tortoise has met his match. Meanwhile, in the human kingdom, Oriaku is determined to become the great and wealthy fisherman he used to be, to put an end to his ridicule. Find out what happens as fate intertwines the destiny of these three in a fierce battle for victory.
