Cover of Home From the Sea, by Mercedes Lackey. Background: Blue-green underwater scene with blue mermaids and seals. Inset: A woman with pale skin and long, dark hair stands in a small, round wooden boat, in the middle of a stormy sea. She is wearing a tartan-plaid skirt and shawl over a dark blue blouse. She clutches an oar in one hand and holds up a water sprite in the other: a creature that's mostly fish, but with wings and human arms.
