About this listen

In Fathomless, the greatest predator the world has ever known is coming home in 2016.

Carcharodon megalodon. The largest and most fearsome predator to have ever existed on our planet. Rumours of its existence in our modern oceans have persisted for centuries. Now, in a new adventure, the rumours explode into brutal and terrifying reality in Fathomless, by Greig Beck.

Baranof Island, Gulf of Alaska, 1952. Jim Granger is searching for a place of legend. Known as Bad Water by the island's elders, it's reputed to be home to many dangerous creatures. Through a seam in a cliff face, Jim finds what he seeks. He also finds, too late, that the water demon he was warned about is horrifyingly real.

Today Cate Granger is following in her grandfather's footsteps. Along with a team of scientists and crew, she accidentally releases a creature from Earth's primordial past into today's oceans. The giant megalodon shark follows its instinct and a genetic memory of a home that existed millions of years ago along the Californian coast.

Nothing is safe on or below the water as the monster stakes its claim on the world's oceans. Now Cate and her team must do battle with a creature that has no rival, knows no fear, and regards humans as nothing more than prey.

Critic reviews

"Mr Beck is a master at building up suspense." ( Good Reading)
All stars

Thoroughly enjoyable horror/sc-fi/thriller with a great big fish. Ideal Winter listening, strongly recommended if you like this sort of thing. It's basically "The Meg" with (slightly) better science and considerably better writing.

One caveat: be prepared to have Mr Mangan pronounce Megalodon as "mega-load-on" all the way through. It really grates but after the first forty or so times I got so I could ignore it. Apparently he gets it right in book 2, so that's all right.

Good stuff, lots better than "The Meg"...

Kept me gripped

Boring narration, deus ex machinas, editing mistakes and clichés galore! Long, but not great. unless you have a long journey to fill give this one a miss.

If you've read Jaws and Meg you've read this book

This book was brilliant from start to finish. I couldn’t stop listening to it. The narrator was great and the characters were well rounded.
