Sharks With Personality
Gray, the Seazarain Emprex, has done it; he rules the ocean now. But it
is an ocean on the edge of destruction. The evil frilled shark Hokuu has
released an armada of prehistores: mosasaurs and other ancient
predators. Gray may be a megalodon himself, but he would need an armada
of megalodons to defeat Grimkhan, the seventy-foot long mosasaur king,
let alone the 300 other mosasaur minions hungry for shark flesh.
Together with Hokuu's own armada of vicious frilled sharks, Gray will
have his fins full. Yet he must be victorious. The ocean depends on him.
If he fails, Hokuu will eat him … along with every shark in the Big
Blue.
An oceanic thrill ride, the book has action, humor and a little
tragedy. It is great for readers of all ages. Hokuu is a brilliant
creation, one of the first likable villains I have met and probably the
only one who can rightly claim to be misunderstood, rather than evil,
depending on whether you can see it his way. I would definitely
recommend this book to anyone. Parents should be warned that the battle
scenes can be a little bloody, as Altbacker does not avoid mentioning
sharks being halved and incinerated. This is also the sixth book in a
series and not a stand-alone read.
