I've never been to an old and abandoned city before, but novelist Eve Hathaway definitely made me feel like I was embarking with Tatiana and Mark on their hunt for the city's underground secrets. The book reels you in with the prologue; a brief and horrific encounter from the past, describing the creature that Mark and Tatiana will later on try to pursue. Tatiana's persistence in finding this creature is enough to convince you that there may truly be a mystery lurking underneath the city grounds.Tatiana is the main reason why I loved this book. She is determined in realizing her own interests, and she isn't shy about them, no matter how weird she may seem to the other kids. She is completely unapologetic about who she is, and maybe that's what made her character so endearing to Mark. Mark isn't the typical boy, and you will know it as soon as you see that he appreciates things about Tatiana that surpass her appearance to others.However, what truly kept me turning the pages is the adventure that they are in. These pages will give you a thrill of excitement as they go deeper and deeper into the old city, and as events unfold that bring them closer to the mysterious creature they have been searching for. The revelations are as exciting as they are compelling, and I highly suggest you read this story if you are one to appreciate adventures.
