Breakwater (Rookery Cove) by Kira Stone
Can a bird fall in love with a fish? Maybe in the real world no, but in the Fantasy World of Rookery Cove it has happened. But like in the real world, love is sometime trouble and Airk, the birdman, and Baen, the fishman, are drawn apart and now the comunication between them is impossible. They need an impartial figure and Gavin is sent to investigate a pollution problem, but from the first time he meets the two strange beings, he also choose the role of peacekeeper between the two.Airk is strong and reserved, Baen open and reckless. They are at the opposite polar, air and water and need a piece of land to meet. And this land arrive with Gavin, who was chimically sedate to better accept the strange world of Rookery Cove. And in fact, his reaction to the discovery of this strange men is very pacate and soon he adapts himself to this new reality.
A rather short story, embedded in a more complex series: maybe to better understand this world it would be better to read also the other books. Nevertheless the story is funny and enjoyble.
