Beskrivelse
Ty has lived under the ocean for his entire life. Following global warming and the rise of the seas, his family joined an underwater community in hopes of living in the new frontier of the ocean floor. But When Ty meets Gemma, a girl from 'topside', who is searching the seas for her brother, she quickly makes his life very complicated. Together Ty and Gemma face dangerous sea creatures and venture into the frontier town's rough underworld as they search for her missing brother. But the deeper they dig, the more attention they attract, and soon Ty and Gemma find themselves being hunted by a gang of outlaws who roam the underwater territories causing havoc, and who seem to have eerie abilities. But Ty has a secret of his own, living underwater for his entire life has meant he has also developed a 'special' power. Can he keep it a secret from Gemma and his family or is it time for him to finally tell everyone the truth?

I can highly recommend this story in two volumes and I was actually a little disappointed when I found out that there were only the two books in the series. A little about the story: The seas have risen and as a result a group of people have decided to test whether it is possible to live below the surface of the sea. Here we meet Ty and his family, who are some of the first immigrants. However, not everything breathes peace and tolerability, as there are rumors that those who live under the sea develop special abilities and also indicate the outlaw Ty's family's underwater farm. On the surface we meet Gemma and together with Ty they set out together to investigate the outlaws and the mystery of the floating cities that are disappearing. It is an incredibly detailed and not too improbable future story, which is well written and which, as I said, I wish were more volumes. Book 1: Life Under the Sea Book 2: The Sunken City Denne historie på to bind kan jeg varmt anbefale og jeg blev faktisk lidt skuffet da jeg fandt ud af at der kun var de to bøger i serien. Lidt om historien: Havene er steget og som resultat heraf har en gruppe mennesker besluttet at afprøve om man kan bo under havets overflade. Her møder vi Ty og hans familie som er nogle af de første tilflyttere. Alt ånder dog ikke fred og fordragelighed, der går nemlig rygter om at dem der bor under havet, udvikler særlige evner og derudover angiver lovløse Tys families undersøiske gård. På overfladen møder vi Gemma og sammen med Ty begiver de sig sammen ud for at undersøge de lovløse og mysteriet om de flydende byer der forsvinder. Det er en utrolig detaljeret og ikke alt for usandsynlig fremtids fortælling, som er velskrevet og som jeg som sagt ville ønske var flere bind i. Bog 1: Livet under havet Bog 2: Den sunkne by
