Quantum physics, prime numbers, Irish mythology, medical ethics, robotics and the rise of AI, geopolitics and alternative history: these are among the subjects that provide the basis for stories in this collection – stories distinguished by a lightness of touch and stylistic confidence. They vary in tone from the quirky, whimsical and surreal to the profound and insightful; and, what's more, together they display the good doctor's command of the exacting short story form.
As The Docameron's tales twist and turn, engage and enlighten, they also entertain and – above all – reward repeated reading.

🧜‍♀️ Princess Neria of the merfolk is bound by an ancient oath to protect her kingdom's greatest treasure: the Tidal Heart, a gem that controls the ocean's rhythms. When a charming human pirate, Captain Kael, accidentally steals the gem during a shipwreck raid, Neria must venture onto land to reclaim it. Disguising herself as a human, she infiltrates his crew, only to discover the gem is slowly dying without its oceanic magic—and taking her people's survival with it. As Neria and Kael race against time to restore the Tidal Heart, they navigate treacherous waters of deception and desire. But Kael has his own secrets: he's not just a pirate but a royal heir seeking revenge against those who destroyed his family. When their conflicting loyalties surface and ancient enemies emerge from the depths, Neria must choose between her oceanic oath and the human who's captured her heart. In a world where love is the most dangerous current of all, two souls from different worlds must learn that some treasures are more precious than gems or gold.
