Summary: 5 Stars
This is the first book in the Dive series. Star, Kaz, Dante, and Adriana, are four interns on a diving trip this summer. They are chosen to go to Poseidon, a diving internship all summer. Star, is a cripple, with Cerebral Palsy, but she is the best diver in the internship. Adriana, is not the best, and at first, would have much rather been on an Archaelogical Dig, with her uncle, but her brother was chosen, but knows quite abit about 300 year old artifacts. Dante, is a photographer, and is also color-blind, but helps the others ediscover a treasure. And Kaz, is in guilt. he accidentally made a collision with a hockey player, Drew, and Drew will never walk again. So Kaz goes to Posedon, to get away from sport that could turn him into a weapon of destruction, (Or, that's how he sees it.) But is now really getting into things, and, saves both Star's and Adriana's life, and even Star is impressed. Then, Star finds the shipwreck, and discovers old musket bullets, but is told by Tad Cutter and his crew that they are just movie props. Then they find a piece of eight (Spanish money) And then, they discover that Cutter and his fellows are onto THEIR treasure. This is a great starting book in the series, so read it!
Summary of The Discovery (Dive, Book 1)
Sharks, shipwreck, and sunken treasure in the latest adventure trilogy from Gordon Korman.
Four kids are on a marine expedition for the summer, diving to explore an underwater habitat that's just been altered by a seismic event. What they find, though, is much more than fish - it's sunken treasure. Can they salvage it without anyone else getting to it first? Will the prospect of wealth set them against one another? And what about those sharks . . . .DIVE is another action-packed trilogy from Gordon Korman. The narrative will shift between an account of two kids caught in the shipwreck and the story of the four kids fighting over and desperately trying to get the treasure.
