Or more accurately, if Aluna hadn't headed for land, followed quickly by Hoku. But neither of those proved to be problems once I was just a short way in, and even if Aluna hadn't left her ocean home (the clue *was* in the title) very quickly, it would have been fine. I had a bit of trepidation starting this one, partly because it sounded a bit more "Under the seaaaa" (you all know the tune, right?) than I thought I was in the mood for, fun as that song is, and partly because it's middle grade instead of my usual YA. Only headstrong Aluna and her friend Hoku are stubborn and bold enough to face the terrors of land to search for way to save their people.īut can Aluna’s warrior spirit and Hoku’s tech-savvy keep them safe? Set in a world where overcrowding has led humans to adapt-growing tails to live under the ocean or wings to live on mountains-here is a ride through a future where greed and cruelty have gone unchecked, but the loyalty of friends remains true. The Kampii’s breathing necklaces are failing, but the elders are unwilling to venture above water to seek answers. But after centuries spent hidden from the Above World, her colony’s survival is in doubt. Goodreads synopsis: Thirteen-year-old Aluna has lived her entire life under the ocean with the Coral Kampii in the City of Shifting Tides.
And today I seem to have no border around the image.
