Nathalie Laine is a children's fantasy author. She lives a safe distance away from the ocean, in Paris, France, where she works in marketing. She enjoys: poking her finger into the mini whirlpools that form above bath drains, randomly understanding words in a language she doesn't know, wrongly guessing the double-agent in cold war spy stories, sharing a Turkish meal of "Lion's milk", fish and turnip juice with friends, and getting spurned by grumpy cats. She may have snuck some of the above into her novel series, Alessia in Atlantis. She is a graduate of the London School of Economics (BSc Management 2010).
Editorial Reviews"Electrifying... much like the Percy Jackson and
Harry Potter series." - Reader's Favorite (5-star review)
"Invites readers to immerse themselves in this surprising
underwater realm, and Laine's continual inventiveness (mermonkeys,
nereid newscasters, clamshell beds) freshens up the magic-school
storytelling... Lovers of the genre will find this worth the
plunge." - BookLife Reviews
"Thrills, friendship, ... an intriguing underwater adventure." -
Foreword Clarion Reviews (4-star review)
Reader Reviews"A strong sequel... I look forward to reading more

"Excellent undersea adventure, as always. I love Alessia and all of
her friends. Just when you think you know what's going on, Nathalie
throws in a twist, and then another, and then another. I love that!
Can't wait for book three!" - Michelle K (5-star review on
Goodreads)
"I absolutely loved the first book in this series and The Jellyfish
Jailbreak is the perfect sequel... If you liked the first book you
definitely should read the sequel. I'm hoping there will be more in
this series." - Sheri E (5-star review on Netgalley)
