Reviews for Deep-sea Duel

[elizajane_1 · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

I have to say *I* wasn't particularly thrilled with this entry in the series. I'm sure the intended audience will enjoy the book as it follows suit with the overall theme of the series and this one in particular is written perhaps for the younger end of the age group. However, I just found the story silly and the dialogue of Aquaman very un-superhero-ish. But when Atlantis is attacked by Ocean Master and Aqualad who is away receives a distress call from Aquaman and has to come back and save the day ... um ... no. It most certainly should have been the other way around.

This beginning chapter book is a part of a series from DC comics. With the help of friends and pets Aqualad, the son of the Sea King must protect Atlantis from an evil villain. Not a graphic novel but the bright illustrations on each two page spread move the story swiftly along. Words like BOOM and ZZZZAP are presented in colorful interesting fonts within the text. A glossary is included at the end. This book and series is might be just the ticket for moving reluctant boys into chapter books.
