Booklist Review

This third book in the Voyagers series continues the exciting adventures of two crews of 12-year-old kids flying ships through outer space in a race to retrieve objects essential to Earth's survival. Both teams are competing to get the element Pollen Slither first, found on the planet Aqua Gen, without any of the planet's less-than-friendly inhabitants noticing. Coldly ambitious Omega Team leader Anna isn't willing to come in second again, so she deliberately alerts the AquaGens to Team Alpha's presence the minute they reach the planet. Alpha leader Dash and his crew are captured and forced to fight fierce sea creatures and bloodthirsty pirates. They have also lost contact with team member Piper, who has disappeared beneath the treacherous waters of Aqua Gen in a submarine. This is an interactive reading experience: codes are included for kids to crack online as they read along. Readers looking for excitement and humor will find it here in this enjoyable entry in a projected six-book series.--Rawlins, Sharon Copyright 2016 Booklist
