I was so disappointed. After reading Ingo and The Tide Knot (which seemed like filler to me), I was hoping for more.I really enjoyed the first and second books of Ingo. This one started off a little slower but was still enjoyable. I always love the feeling these books give when Saph enters Ingo.
New troubles loom for Saffy, her brother Connor, and their friend Faro, not just because the Kraken - an ancient monster of the deep - has threatened to destroy Ingo unless the Mer give it over their young. A new danger is rising, with aspiring leader Ervys gaining strength by encouraging prejudice those who aren't full-blooded Mer. Faro's mentor, Saldowr, believes the people of Ingo have another option in Saffy, who entered the deep and managed to survive - an impossible feat all but a handful
Not as strong as the previous Ingo books, but still psychologically enchanting and very creative. From riding inside the mouth of a whale to the true nature of the Kraken, Helen Dunmore really puts you into the emotional state of the characters, amplifying their fears, triumphs, and every little thing in between. This one ran a little slower and the scene with the Kraken is somewhat anticlimatic if not read slowly and carefully, but overall I enjoyed The Deep and am looking forward to the next
This series no longer really holds my attention the way the first book did when I was younger, but the books are good enough that I'm going to continue through until the end.I really think the Tide Knot and The Deep probably could have been condensed into one book. The Deep didn't need to be 329 pages. Not enough happened for it to need to be 329 pages. Still it was good. It was nice. I have to keep in mind it's a children's book and for that, I think it's really good.Sapphire is just... young,
Over all the book is fairly entertaining but the beginning is a little slow. If you like fantasy type series then this could be the series for you. However if you don't like slow starts this book might not be for you. Even in the third book they still introduce all the characters even though they have been in all the other books if this is your first read of the series you still get to meet all the characters. One bad thing about this book is that you can predict the ending from the start of the
I can't wait to read the next one in the series! If Sapphire ever starts doing guided tours of Ingo I'm totally going to be one of the first in line!
