Overall star rating

About the book:
Anyone can be taken - a simple truth for Salt folk, a stark reality for innocent teens Garrett Weaver and Kellen Winstel. Kidnapped by Selkie slave catchers and dragged into the realm beneath the waves, both teens must adapt to their new surroundings if they hope to see the shore again.
Yet even if they escape their captors, both will need to embrace their fears. For darker things than Selkies lurk in the Salted depths and not all of them have pure intentions for the innocent ones brought down into their watery world.

The review --
This book is the
sequel to Aaron's first book in this series, Salted; which I reviewed.
The first book
introduces you to the salted world, and the characters. The second book
continues their stories, and you'll love it. So you'll want to read the first
book in the series before you read this one. But I highly recommend both. This
isn't just a 5 star book, it's a 5 star series.
The first book was
very good, but this one is even better. It's an awesome series and the author
is an awesome writer. This book has a different take on undersea angle, but it
has a fast pace that you'll love. I know I did. It's one of those books that
you won't want to put down. Both books are simply awesome. I look forward to more in this fantastic series.
