About this listen

The ocean rose, swallowing up the lowlands. Earthquakes shattered the continents, toppling entire regions into the rising water. Now, humans live packed into stack cities. The only ones with any space of their own are those who live on the ocean floor, the Dark Life. Ty has spent his whole life living deep undersea, helping his family farm the ocean floor. But when outlaws attack his homestead, Ty finds himself in a fight to save the only home he has ever known.

Joined by Gemma, a girl from the Topside who has come subsea to look for her brother, Ty ventures into the frontier’s rough underworld and discovers some dark secrets to Dark Life...secrets that threaten to destroy everything.

In Dark Life, Kat Falls has created a breathtaking world where the deep can be dangerous, the darkness can be deadly, and sometimes it takes extraordinary power to survive.

One of our favorites of the season.

If you could sum up Dark Life in three words, what would they be?

Stays with you.

Who was your favorite character and why?

I liked them all... it was like the modern day wild west.

What does Keith Nobbs bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Differnt voices, inflection, attitude and intensity for the characters.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

It was like the hunger games, in that, you caught yourself thinking about the book at random times. Unique story, that was inventive and borders on the realm of possible... in the distant future.

Well thought out futuristic fantasy.

Would you consider the audio edition of Dark Life to be better than the print version?

Didn't read the print version, but the performance is good so I enjoyed listening to it. Can't imagine enjoying it more reading.

What other book might you compare Dark Life to and why?

Life as We Knew It because the main characters are teens and it's science fiction. The difference is that Dark Life is not a downer.

What does Keith Nobbs bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

My daughter and I agree that he nailed the voices of the characters.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Dive into adventure and mystery.

Any additional comments?

I'm a middle school Science teacher and am always watching for interesting science novels for my students. I picked this up at the book fair. My daughter read it and wouldn't leave me alone until I read it. She even researched that it was on Audible and I could listen to it.

Wonderful Story for All Ages

I read this book when I was ten years old, and decided to come back to it now that I am an adult. The plot definitely still holds up. Usually books meant for younger audiences make me turn my nose because the writing is juvenile, or dodges around darker subjects. This book however, does not do that. I must say that the narrator is a bit difficult to get used to as he anunciates every word quite clearly, but once you get into it he does a very good performance.

A good story

This book starts a little slow, and I was worried about being interested in the rest of the book. It picks up though as a real adventure starts.
