This review is from: Diving Adventure (Paperback)

I read all of the Willard Price books back in the sixties and had my children read them through the nineties. We still talk about these books though they are off to college. A GREAT way to get even a non-reader interested in books through well written adventures.

Diving adventure is an excellent book by Willard Price about two boys, Roger 14 and Hal 19, who go diving in Undersea City 200 feet below the Great Barrier Reef off Australia. Here they explore sea life and find a sunken ship filled with gold - but there is a murderer on the loose who will stop at nothing to get the treasure. Hal and Roger also take a bathyscope down to the Challenger Depth in Mariners Trench, the deepest point in the world, where they encounter marine life never before seen.

This is one of the 14 books in the Adventure series by Willard Price.
