After finishing Moongarden, I was happy to see that Seagarden had already been released; alas, I have to wait for the final book. I never write much about middle books because I don't want to give much away.

Myra, Canta, and Lila move to Venus to attend school there as an exchange program. They want to find a group of Reps who are seeking more rights and even to regain their former magic. They also want to find Hannah's sister who was exiled to Venus for being a Botan, with hope of finding Canter's mom, as all Botans are exiled here. Canter and Lila love the new school, for it's nothing like their school on the Moon where everything is super strict. On Venus, classes are fun. The students experiment and learn in very different ways. Miura rarely sees them. Feeling alone and neglected, Myra makes friends with a boy who seems to also be an outcast, Noah. She also discovers more of the Number Whisperer magic by learning math with music. She plays the trombone based on math. When Canter and Lila fail to show up to meet her, she dumps the trombone and starts skipping class again with Noah.

Noah knows where all the places are where one can hide. Unlike the moon, Venus has storms and water. Myra spends time looking for a place to hide her forbidden seeds. When a storm approaches, Myra wants to see and feel it because she never has. The seeds wash out of her pocket. The seeds implant in the sea or ocean floor, springing into huge plants. She doesn't have a choice; she must explain to Noah. He agrees to help. Canter and Lila eventually find out about all of these changes with Myra and are hurt, angry, and sorry for neglecting her. With all three working together again, they finally contact Hannah and connect with the people working against the company providing all of the horrible food. It's here where all the surprises happen. Who can be trusted? What happened to the food? Why does the company's owner. have so much power?

I liked this book as well. I liked the first book better because I could see the train wreck coming and wanted to spare everyone. I will be reading the third book, for I like the characters and their friendships. ( )
