Review: I would say this book is aged at children and young adults by the age of 9-19. This has main character called Zoe who is nice kind and caring but she has some sence how to survive. This book is set in Norwich in the future when it has magor floods and Norwich is nkw an island. SH trave england in small boat coming to an island wer it o mad and there are wars. She finds a friend caled william and he is an adult. She tries to find her boat but itis not there. She evenyuallu gets on the boat with a guy called munchkin. They creat a friendsip on the boat and they are sailing for days. There is a syorm and i wont say wha happens next. This is an amazing book also a MUST READ. I would recommend buying it.

Review: I didn’t realise when I decided to read this book that it’s children’s fiction. Never mind, I read a lot of children’s fiction so this wasn’t an issue. Zoe is the POV character here. I really liked her. She’s mature for her age, a bit feisty yet still very much a child underneath it all. As this is a children’s book the danger and suspense is never quite as serious as it could have been. I’d love to read an adult version. Zos is resourceful and determined. I was a bit disappointed by the ending though. The ending is a happy but I felt the book veers to an obvious conclusion and I was hoping for something a bit more. I suppose the ending is suitable for children’s fiction.
