Resumen del Editor

Brought to you by Puffin.

From the creator of Percy Jackson, best-selling author Rick Riordan, comes a brand-new adventure, inspired by Jules Verne's Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.

Ana Dakkar is a freshman at Harding-Pencroft Academy, a five-year high school that graduates the best marine scientists, naval warriors, navigators and underwater explorers in the world. Ana's parents died while on a scientific expedition two years ago, and the only family's she's got left is her older brother, Dev, also a student at HP. Ana's freshman year culminates with the class' weekend trial at sea, the details of which have been kept secret. She only hopes she has what it'll take to succeed. All her worries are blown out of the water when, on the bus ride to the ship, Ana and her schoolmates witness a terrible tragedy that will change the trajectory of their lives.

But wait, there's more. The professor accompanying them informs Ana that their rival school, Land Institute, and Harding-Pencroft have been fighting a cold war for a 150 years. But now the heat is on, and the freshman are in danger of becoming fish food. In a race against deadly enemies, Ana will make amazing friends and astounding discoveries about her heritage as she puts her leadership skills to the test for the first time.

Rick Riordan's trademark humour, fast-paced action and wide cast of characters are on full display in this undersea adventure.

Rick Riordan has now sold an incredible 60 million copies of his books worldwide.

Fabulous start to a new series?

A great story, very cool tie in to the Jules Verne classics. My only criticism is the narrator constantly sounding panicked or forced but it doesn't detract too much.

Uncle Rick's version of Star Trek.

Curious to see where this series heads towards. As I have mentioned, Star Trek vibe. Nautilus/Enterprise and potential exploration of the depth where no man has ever been!

First time listening to an audiobook with background music. I m still on the fence about it. It:s awesome at parts but takes me out of the story sometimes.

My review of Daughter of the Deep

As usual, I loved the story that Rick has come up with. i love how he writes about the see and the peace of its water's, I love that he wrote about veganism and how good the food can be 🤤, I especially loved how he wrote from a young woman's point of view. being a girl is hard and I really appreciate how he did include this in the Daughter of the Deep. I could go on and on about how wonderful this book is, I really liked the different types of characters that where introduced. They are all inspections. I can't get over the Marry Berry thing, Loved that! What an amazing book!
I didn't enjoy the music in the background. I felt that it was unnecessary and took away from the experience of the story. The narrator was really good, I enjoyed listening to her.
It is very inspiring to me as a young woman and writer.
Thank you for this book, I will probably listen to it many times in the future ❤️📖

Melancholy, slow and boring

I started listening. It got too mopey and boring and I gave up after a few chapters. Maybe it got better later on, but I didn't really enjoy Rick's attempt to write a melancholy female first person.
