5.0 out of 5 stars Ingo, 27 Mar 2009
By Mrs. S. P. Boon - See all my reviews

Ingo

I purchased this book for my daughter. She is enthralled by the deep sea world of Ingo and the adventures contained within it. It is very imaginative and easy to read. It is the perfect girl's tale - my daughter is 10. She and her friends discuss events as they unfold. I would recommend this and the other tales relating to it by the same author, such as 'Tideknot'.

3.0 out of 5 stars The Shallows, 2 April 2008
By Shawn Watson "God of Gods" (Badger's Brook, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Deep (Hardcover)
After the wonderfully written Ingo and Tide Knot I was surprised to find that The Deep ended up being so clunky and slow. Not really much happens in the 320 pages and there's no sense of urgency, mystery or need to keep turning the page.

Sapphire and her brother Conor are summoned back to the ocean when the Kraken (not the giant squid of common lore) threatens to wreak havoc upon the world when he wakes from his thousand year slumber. The kids sort him out rather easily towards the end of the second act, leaving the last third of the book to just ramble on about nothing in particular and sort of fizzle out instead of ending on a high note.

Helen Dunmore could have DONE MORE to make this is as unputdownable as the first two. It should have been structured better and had a stronger storyline. I often guessed that she was just winging it with the slightest of plots and didn't really know how it was going to end up.

With the final book in the series, The Crossing of Ingo, due out in a couple of months I will still be checking it out. I can already tell exactly what gimmicks Dunmore is going to use. But that is because I am a know-it-all.
