Echoes from the Deep

By Sandra J. Paul and Bart de Wolf is a suspenseful flipover book for daredevils! 

Sandra’s book started off quite strange and made me question what was about to happen. The reveal of Lev’s secret really serves as a catalyst for the story and turned out to really grab my attention.

In Bart’s book the tension takes off immediately and reads a bit quicker than Sandra’s. The mysterious and gloomy atmosphere add to the spooky subject of the story. It’s dark and dooming and very suspenseful.

In all, Echoes from the Deep is a fresh take on books for a young audience. The fact that the book actually contains two books and is flipable, will definitely appeal to its target audience. Both stories are short, cover the same story skeleton (characters, setting…), but the plot is anything but the same.

I recommend this book to anyone who is a reading daredevil to enter the depths of a self-dug pit to discover the truth about dark and hidden town secrets.

Many tanks to the publisher Hamley Books for providing me a DRC of the book in exchange for sharing my opinion.
