The story continues in this fifth book in the Spirit
Animals series - an epic collection of stories that leap from the
page into a riveting online game.
Your book is the key to claim your spirit animal!

The sun is shining in the Hundred Isles, and yet the path forward
seems crowded with shadows. Conor, Abeke, Meilin, and Rollan
have traveled across the world, seeking a set of powerful talismans
in order to keep them from enemy hands.


Throughout their journey the young heroes have been hounded by
pursuers, who always seem to know just where to find them.


Now they know why.


One of them is a traitor.


As they steer the crystal blue waters of this tropical paradise,
the team can't help but suspect each other. There's a spy in their
midst, and before this mission is over, a deadly trap will close
around them.


The fate of Erdas has fallen on the shoulders of these brave strangers
. . . and on you..





Part engrossing book series, part action role-playing
game - discover your spirit animal and join the adventure.



Six immersive novels and a breathtaking game make this a world
children will want to live in for ever

Hardback format makes this a lovely gift

Each book in the series will unlock expanded gameplay on the
Spirit Animals online game site www.spiritanimals.com

The stunning game puts players in the world of the books, drawing
reluctant readers into the story

"You will wish you had been kinder."

WHOA!!! The series took a HUGE leap forward in intensity with this installment. I had pretty much decided nothing much would surprise me with it and was just sort of trundling along...and then I got smacked in the face! The ending is a total shocker and cliffhanger (unless you are WAY better than I am at picking up on foreshadowing and curveballs). Still nothing inappropriate for middle grade (elementary school age) readers.

Against the Tide is also the first in this series to actually have what I would call quotable lines. There was some humor alongside of all the "OMG" happening, and I actually went and looked up the author's other books because I enjoyed it that much.
