Eoin Colfer's vision of a drowning world is breathless fun...As in Illegal, the language is sparse, consisting of quick-fire dialogue and brief, staccato narration, complemented by Giovanni Rigano's haunting illustrations. This format will appeal to less confident readers, for whom the pictures will spell out the story in as much detail as the words. But this is also a skilfully plotted novel, in which obstacles are overcome, and characters given time to unravel. And as with all the best adventure books, the drama is made ever more vivid by constant juxtaposition with the everyday.
