The Ocean Squid Explorers' Club by Alex Bell
4.0
I got this for my birthday and it sadly took me a little while to get to it, as I always have too many books to read! I do love this series however, so I was excited when I finally did pick it up.
The Explorers' Club series had left off with Stella winning the day at Black Ice Bridge but the Collector disappearing off to fight another day. This part of the series picks up with new characters (though we do see glimpses of our previous heroes) in the Ocean Squid Explorers' Club. Our heroine is Ursula, a half mermaid who is terrified of being discovered by the club.
When the club is stolen by the Collector, she is left with one submarine, three allies and a mission to defeat the Collector. I particularly like Genie's hats and Max's robots.
We get to see some great underwater parts of the Explorers' Club universe, from Mermaid ice cream to submarines and sea horses. I really enjoyed getting more world building, as this really is a fantastic universe.
I can't wait to see what happens next! 4.5 stars.
