Blurb:
In
a world ravaged by drought, family is all that
matters…
Eighteen-year-old
Hazel refuses to become another wife and broodmare to the prophet of
the Wellspring cult. She’s determined to find a safe haven for her
younger brother, Caleb, in a world where 80% of all fresh water has
been contaminated by an algae bloom. But if they’re going to
survive, they’ll need help.
Scientists Emily and Sam,
and wilderness guide Bash, might just be the kind of people they can
count on. But a lifetime of isolation makes it near impossible for
Hazel to trust outsiders. Even if they may be her only hope of
breaking free from the prophet’s clutches.
A remote
forest cabin seems to be the perfect base of operations to plan their
escape. But when the cult’s soldiers come searching for them, Hazel
must draw upon all her strength and skill to protect Caleb.
With
her brother’s life hanging in the balance, she'll risk everything
to save him - even if it means taking on the maniacal cult by
herself.
My Review:
Toxic Tides is a very intense and engaging read that caught my attention with the summary. Once I started reading I was hooked I didn’t want to stop reading it but sometimes life gets in the way and gives you no choice. The world created for Toxic Tides was a fascinating read.
The world’s water has been contaminated. Hazel only wants to find a safe place to keep her brother Caleb safe. They escaped a cult, and now the cult is looking for them. Hazel knows she will need help keeping Caleb safe, but she doesn’t trust anyone after living with the Wellspring cult. But what choice does she have?
Hazel and Caleb meet Emily and Bash, two very nice people. They have found a safe haven and made preparations just in case they have to leave quickly if someone from the Wellspring cult finds them.
The world-building in Toxic Tides was wonderfully well done. I loved it. On many occasions, I found myself lost in its world. It was as if I were no longer reading it but seeing it all as if it were real. The descriptions were so well done that I could see it all in my head as if I were watching a movie.
I recommend Toxic Tides to anyone who likes reading end-of-the-world type of stories. Grab a copy of Toxic Tides today!
