Description
Sam Blanchard will do whatever it takes to protect her living world, including night dives into a pitch black sea.
It is two weeks since she escaped through the moon poop with her father and Rafael, a super geek who would wear a tie with his scuba suit if they sold them. They are on the run and enemies are closing in. They should be heading for safety but two dolphins, Calypso and Steve, have other ideas. Classic dolphins.
No one told Sam that intelligent communication between species would be so complicated. How can they share a planet but see life so differently? In the darkest depths of prehistory they find proof that they were never alone. Together they are Pod and will change the world … if they live long enough.

” I was unsure how easy it would be to keep a story that takes place mostly at sea interesting, but Vassie manages it and does it well.
The characters have all developed, and learning more about the culture and backstory of the dolphins was great. The addition of two new characters to ‘the pod’ also helped to add a new dynamic to the story, and you quickly grow attached to the whole cast as they develop and learn to face the challenges they have been dealt.
As someone who predominantly reads sci fi, how the author dealt with another species interacting with humans was very interesting to read, and he has clearly done his research into dolphin behaviour. They have their own culture to them, and read as something other than a person in flippers which I found particularly good.
A great addition to the Moon Pool trilogy, and I look forward to the final instalment!” Amazon review
