Summary

Barclay and his friends must save an island city from the Legendary Beast of the Sea in this “charming and earnest” （Kirkus Reviews） sequel to the New York Times bestselling The Accidental Apprentice， perfect for fans of Nevermoor and How to Train Your Dragon。

Something is wrong at the Sea。 The weeping tide， a carnivorous algae bloom， is eating up all the fish。 Beasts are terrorizing the nearby Elsewheres。 And Lochmordra， the Legendary Beast， is rising at random and swallowing ships whole。

Barclay’s teacher， the famous Guardian Keeper Runa Rasgar， has been summoned to investigate， and as her apprentice， Barclay gets to join too。 But Runa’s nemesis has also been called to the Sea， and he’s brought apprentices of his own。 When the not-so-friendly competition between them grows fierce， it’s Barclay—the only one from the Elsewheres—who can’t seem to keep up。

The key to stopping Lochmordra lies in his mythical home， but as the flood of the weeping tide encroaches， time is running out to find it。 If the rival groups can’t cast aside old grudges and learn to work together， soon the Sea will be destroyed completely。 And all the while Barclay must ask himself: is there truly a place for him in the Wilderlands？

Almost the same plot as the first book， but we all enjoyed it anyway。

Our Wilderlore apprentices leave the Woods and head to the Sea where we meet even more cool creatures and characters。 The constant woe-is-me from Barclay compounded with the kids incessant bickering （Viola runs into her ex-bestie/apprentices） almost made me put the book down。 Fortunately， my nine-year-old Buddy Reader urged me to keep going and I'm glad I did， because when Barclay finally realizes his Elsieness is a strength instead of a weakness， it's all the more impactful。And the villain reve Our Wilderlore apprentices leave the Woods and head to the Sea where we meet even more cool creatures and characters。 The constant woe-is-me from Barclay compounded with the kids incessant bickering （Viola runs into her ex-bestie/apprentices） almost made me put the book down。 Fortunately， my nine-year-old Buddy Reader urged me to keep going and I'm glad I did， because when Barclay finally realizes his Elsieness is a strength instead of a weakness， it's all the more impactful。And the villain reveal is a twist I didn't see coming！ Excited for Book 3！ 。。。more

This didn't compare to the first in the series for me。 At best I think it was merely "okay"。 I don't know that I will continue with this series， even though I like the main character。 This didn't compare to the first in the series for me。 At best I think it was merely "okay"。 I don't know that I will continue with this series， even though I like the main character。 。。。more

I received a free copy of The Weeping Tide in a Goodreads giveaway and I am Voluntarily leaving a review。 This is book 2 in the Wilderlore series and the first book needs to be read first。 This is not my typical genre and I am an adult， but I really enjoyed this series so far。

Sara ，

A solid installment for this series。 We continue to be enchanted by this world and the tales - we love following the crew from the first book on their further adventures as they ensue and the environmental forces that they encounter are uniquely inventive （the weeping tide）。 I'm continuously wishing I had a beast like Root to call and neatly tuck away on a tattoo。 I love that the mystery to solve wasn't easily guessable and kept us wondering how it would resolve。 A solid installment for this series。 We continue to be enchanted by this world and the tales - we love following the crew from the first book on their further adventures as they ensue and the environmental forces that they encounter are uniquely inventive （the weeping tide）。 I'm continuously wishing I had a beast like Root to call and neatly tuck away on a tattoo。 I love that the mystery to solve wasn't easily guessable and kept us wondering how it would resolve。 。。。more

I had the most wonderful time reading this， and I’m hoping that I’ll get to the third one pretty quickly because I am so curious to see more of this world。 Admittedly， I did have a rough time with this being set in the ocean， and I haven’t had a visceral reaction to a book like I did reading about them diving into a trench in a long time。 It was kind of like reading a nature book as a child and desperately not wanting to touch the bugs on the pages， which really just means that Foody did an exce I had the most wonderful time reading this， and I’m hoping that I’ll get to the third one pretty quickly because I am so curious to see more of this world。 Admittedly， I did have a rough time with this being set in the ocean， and I haven’t had a visceral reaction to a book like I did reading about them diving into a trench in a long time。 It was kind of like reading a nature book as a child and desperately not wanting to touch the bugs on the pages， which really just means that Foody did an excellent job describing the horrific nature of the deep ocean。 I did not see the plot twist in this coming until it was happening， and， as always， the writing overall was just fantastic。 I can’t remember if this is meant to be just a trilogy or longer， but I hope it’s longer so we can continue to see the different Wilderlands。 。。。more

I like how the story revolved around events that happened before the first book。 This story takes place in the sea。 A beast named Lochmordra is terrorizing the island and the main character's friends' home。 The story is about believing in yourself and that with teamwork， you can do almost anything。 I like how the story revolved around events that happened before the first book。 This story takes place in the sea。 A beast named Lochmordra is terrorizing the island and the main character's friends' home。 The story is about believing in yourself and that with teamwork， you can do almost anything。 。。。more

I've picked this up multiple times， and just can't be bothered to use that much time to finish another mediocre book。 The world building remains interesting in book 2， though I kind of felt bogged down by all the fantasy names。 It was really the writing/narrative style that made me put it down finally though。 It felt amateur， and kept jarring me out of the story because of awkward or unnatural-sounding descriptions。 Anyway， good concept and interesting enough plot （I skipped ahead to the end）， s I've picked this up multiple times， and just can't be bothered to use that much time to finish another mediocre book。 The world building remains interesting in book 2， though I kind of felt bogged down by all the fantasy names。 It was really the writing/narrative style that made me put it down finally though。 It felt amateur， and kept jarring me out of the story because of awkward or unnatural-sounding descriptions。 Anyway， good concept and interesting enough plot （I skipped ahead to the end）， so maybe I'll pick it up again later。 。。。more

Adventurous and mythical， I loved the way this author wrote it in the perspective of the main character’s thoughts and Root’s feelings。

You can read my full review on my blog， The Bookwyrm's Den， here。I received a copy in exchange for an honest， unbiased review。 OverallI have waited for this book ever since the moment I set down the first book， The Accidental Apprentice。 The series is pitched as being for fans of Nevermoor， and while I think that certainly stands， it’s got a very Pokemon and Digimon feel to it （both of which might be horribly dated， but oh well！ It’s my blog and I’m old。） To me， the series has an old-scho You can read my full review on my blog， The Bookwyrm's Den， here。I received a copy in exchange for an honest， unbiased review。 OverallI have waited for this book ever since the moment I set down the first book， The Accidental Apprentice。 The series is pitched as being for fans of Nevermoor， and while I think that certainly stands， it’s got a very Pokemon and Digimon feel to it （both of which might be horribly dated， but oh well！ It’s my blog and I’m old。） To me， the series has an old-school nostalgia feel with some fresh new ideas， which is the perfect blend in general。 After the first book， though， I couldn’t wait to dive back into Wilderlore and go on another adventure！The Weeping Tide returns to the world of Wilderlore 。 。 。 but this time to the Sea！ Where there are plenty of new creatures， sea-faring adventures， danger lurking around every turn， well-kept secrets， and something lurking in the deep。I was not at all disappointed in this book。 I think I actually enjoyed it even more than the first one。 We got to see some old favorites from the first book， plus a squad of new characters who were equally charming and fun。 Not to mention new monsters， all with a Sea theme this time， which I absolutely love。 Monster in the deep is one of my favorite tropes， and I’m always a fan of ships and sailing， so everything about this book just worked for me。 Except， you know， the fact that I now have to wait 。 。 。 again 。 。 。 for book three！ I mean， it’s worth it， but boy do I want the third book already， especially after the way this one ends！ My Thoughts- Move over Wood， the Sea is here 。 。 。 and she promises adventure and dangers galore！ During the first book， there were plenty of hints dropped that the subsequent books would touch on the other biomes。 So I wasn’t disappointed when I noticed that The Weeping Tide deals with the Sea。 Yes， capitalized， because that means it’s the Beast portion of the world， as opposed to the un-magical Elsewheres。 Silly Elsies don’t know what they’re missing。 And let me tell you 。 。 。 the Sea is horrifying。 But also beautiful。 But also 。 。 。 probably not somewhere you want to visit。 I mean， I totally would 。 。 。 but I’ve been known to do highly illogical， ill-advised things on a regular basis。 You can think of the world of Wilderlore as being like Pokemon if the Pokedex entries were literal。 Foody doesn’t pull punches when it comes to danger， while still keeping it kid appropriate。 Which makes for a high-stakes， fast-paced， sea-faring adventure！- Two words for you: Sea。 Shanties。 Because you can’t set a book on a chain of islands with a seafaring lifestyle without having sea shanties， right？！ There are several different versions of sea shanties in this book， but I absolutely loved them！ Someone （way more talented than I am， obviously） needs to set them to music and make them a thing。 I felt The Weeping Tide displays a lot more culture than The Accidental Apprentice did， which makes sense， because Barclay is experiencing a new place for the first time。 The Sea is definitely different from the Wood， but it’s hard not to fall in love with it， dangers and all。 I was just enamored with the different aspects of life on the islands that make up the Sea。 Plus， instead of mushrooms？ They have full-on apothecaries that get to study really dangerous and exciting species， which is obviously the realm in which I would exist in this world。 I have officially found my niche！- If you missed our main trio， they’re back， with more grand adventures， more mysteries to solve， and maybe even a little bit more soul-searching。 If you thought Barclay had it tough in the last book， coming to grips with accidentally bonding with a Beast—which he’s been raised to think of as a horrible， evil thing—then it may not come as a surprise to find that he’s still struggling with his place in this new world he’s been thrust into。 Not only is he wildly behind his peers in terms of knowledge and know-how， since he wasn’t raised in the world of Beasts， but he has a much harder time getting a grip on his Lore and powers。 I always felt that Barclay was a very relatable character， and that’s still the case in this book。 On the surface， it’s easy to see why Barclay might feel like the odd man out of his group or why he might struggle to find his place in the world of Beasts。 What I love， though， is that Barclay isn’t the only one with personal struggles because—surprise！—all people tend to have personal struggles。 I felt that Barclay not only started growing into himself in this book， but I also think he starts paying more attention to the people around him， and it’s such a lovely character growth to get to see！- The Weeping Tide introduces a new trio of characters to add to the squad， even if they get off to a bit of a rocky start。 I honestly can’t decide how much to say about this， because I think part of the fun （and surprises） is from meeting these characters and finding out who they are。 So I don’t want to say too much。 What I will say is that while there’s definitely tension there between the two groups， they make for a heck of a fun squad。 These girls bring some new， unique powers to the table with their unique Beasts。 Plus， their personalities are just so much fun。 I really hope they’ll be recurring characters that come back in future books， because I really enjoyed the new dynamic they brought to the group！- One of the new characters is an amputee， and I really appreciated the way Foody handles it。 I am not an amputee myself， but my aunt was。 Like the character in this book， she lost her knee and lower leg。 Even though she always put on a brave front， there were days we knew it bothered her。 While Shazi has a little bit of an advantage， being able to use her Lore to make using a prosthetic a bit easier， Foody doesn’t shy away from broaching the difficulties that are inherent in having a limb amputated。 I really appreciated the honest discourse about it。 At no point is Shazi unable to do things， but it’s also not necessarily easy for her， either。 This book does an absolutely fantastic job of humanizing all the characters， and this is only one example of that。- I would be remiss if I didn’t end this review by talking about how much I absolutely love the new Beasts we encounter in this book！ This was one of my favorite things about the first book， so it makes sense that I’d continue to love it， right？ Just like animals， Beasts come in all shapes and sizes。 They can be as adorable as they are terrifying。 And of course， everyone has different opinions about what constitutes each。 Since the characters vary so much， it makes sense that their Beasts would， too， and I love seeing all the different types。 Plus， each Beast has its own personality， which is extra fun！ 。。。more

This is so much fun， and everything middle grade fiction should be。 The first of the Wilderlore books was good， but a bit inconsistent character-wise。 Amanda Foody really finds her stride with the second book。 The characters are great， and the world she's built is fascinating。 I definitely want to spend more time in the Wilderlands！Also。 Disability representation！ Yes！ This is so much fun， and everything middle grade fiction should be。 The first of the Wilderlore books was good， but a bit inconsistent character-wise。 Amanda Foody really finds her stride with the second book。 The characters are great， and the world she's built is fascinating。 I definitely want to spend more time in the Wilderlands！Also。 Disability representation！ Yes！ 。。。more
