The Neptune Project
Autor Polly Holyokeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 mar 2014 – vârsta de la 10 până la 14 ani
Nere
feels
more
at
home
swimming
with
the
dolphins
her
mother
studies
than
she
does
hanging
out
with
her
classmates.
Nere
has
never
understood
why
she
feels
so
much
more
comfortable
and
confident
in
water
than
on
land,
but
everything
falls
into
place
when
Nere
learns
that
she
is
one
of
a
group
of
kids
who-unbeknownst
to
them-have
been
genetically
altered
to
survive
in
the
ocean.
These
products
of
"The
Neptune
Project"
will
be
able
to
build
a
better
future
under
the
sea,
safe
from
the
barren
country's
famine,
wars,
and
harsh
laws.
But there are some very big problems: no one asked Nere if shewantedto be a science experiment, the other Neptune kids aren't exactly the friendliest bunch, and in order to reach the safe haven of the Neptune colony, Nere and her fellow mutates must swim through hundreds of miles of dangerous waters, relying only on their wits, dolphins, and each other to evade terrifying undersea creatures and a government that will stop at nothing to capture the Neptune kids...dead or alive.
Fierce
battles
and
daring
escapes
abound
as
Nere
and
her
friends
race
to
safety
in
this
action-packed
aquatic
adventure.

Recenzii

prose
well-pitched

should
keep

Reviews
the book revels in the beauty of the underwater world and the creatures that inhabit it. The relationship between the teenagers and the dolphins-who actually become characters themselves-is especially well crafted. The Neptune Project will attract male and female readers.—VOYA
