Why read it?
1 author picked Fire In The Sea as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a great read. It’s fast-paced, has interesting characters, and plenty of action and intrigue.
It features an Australian teen (Sadie) who finds herself caught in the middle of an ancient conflict nearing its final battle. I enjoyed the Perth setting, the dynamic between Sadie and the people she cares about, and the brilliant way Myke brings a fresh twist to some creepy ancient mariner myths.
There's a great sense of menace and mystery as this story unfolds, and the last third book is hard to put down as Sadie races to save her city—and the world.
From Paula's list on other-worldly creatures roaming around Australia.
