The author brought these characters to life, everything felt like it came to life actually! It seemed as though I was experiencing all the highs and lows in this tale firsthand! Loved it and couldn’t put it down!

After I strapped myself in and rode into this novel, the characters, and I include all of the inhabitants of this island and sea as characters, I lived this story and so very glad of it….

5 stars means to read again from now on! Love the setting, the mysteries, the characters, the knowledge, etc. Great book!

This is my first book by this author and I love her writing style. It id very lyrically engaging and I felt myself being transported into the Antarctic wilderness with this family. I was on the edge of my seat,

I liked the characters, the theme, and the way it was written. I feel like I lived it and saw it in a movie.
