Review Summaries
" Applegate's latest book is full of fun scenes that let the imagination go wild wondering what will happen next. Set in Atlantis, an underwater city, the main characters must escape because their lives are at risk. The description of Atlantis is the best since Plato's !! A must read for readers of all ages."
Jessica, Resident K.A. Applegate Scholar
