The sun is shining in the Hundred Isles, and yet the path forward seems crowded with shadows. Conor, Abeke, Meilin, and Rollan have traveled across the world, seeking a set of powerful talismans in order to keep them from enemy hands. Throughout their journey the young heroes have been hounded by pursuers, who always seem to know just where to find them. Now they know why. One of them is a traitor.

~Check out all my reviews over on The Bent Bookworm!~ “You will wish you had been kinder.”WHOA!!! The series took a HUGE leap forward in intensity with this installment. I had pretty much decided nothing much would surprise me with it and was just sort of trundling along...and then I got smacked in the face! The ending is a total shocker and cliffhanger (unless you are WAY better than I am at picking up on foreshadowing and curveballs). Still nothing inappropriate for middle grade (elementary school age) readers. Against the Tide is also the first in this series to actually have what I would call quotable lines. There was some humor alongside of all the “OMG” happening, and I actually went and looked up the author's other books because I enjoyed it that much. Blog Twitter Bloglovin Instagram
