Taken from Goodreads, "Return to the subsea frontier with Ty and Gemma! The mysteries of the deep are deadlier than ever when Ty'With time running out for his parents, Ty's desperation leads the two teenagers to the underwater underworld...and into an alliance with the outlaws of the Seablite Gang. But one mystery soon leads to another. How has an entire township disappered? Why is the local sealife suddenly so aggressive? And can the Seablite Gang be trusted...or are Ty and Gemma in deeper water than they realize?"
It's only been a few months since my last trip under the sea with Kat Falls and 'Dark Life' and, boy, am I happy I got to return so soon with 'Rip Tide'. 'Rip Tide' is a 'rip roaring adventure'!
Just like the original, 'Rip Tide' starts with a bang. Readers are thrust into an undersea adventure that doesn't let up. The story is paced well and addictive in nature. This book is truly one that will keep you reading hours on end. Kat makes a smart decision with 'Rip Tide' and takes the story into a totally new setting. Because of this choice, 'Rip Tide' is still a very fresh and almost standalone story. I wouldn't read it before reading 'Dark Life', but it is nice that 'Rip Tide' has its own story, as opposed to just being a 'middle book'.
The banter between the two on again off again leads, Ty and Gemma, is spot on and the secondary characters are interesting to read. Gemma has some nice character development. I'm looking forward to seeing what might happen next in the series!
'Rip Tide' is an addictive, action, adventure set in a cool underwater world. You won't regret reading this series!
