Summary

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.

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

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 listen.

This was a very enjoyable listen. I wish there were more books like this on audible. Greig Beck is a very good author and i have loved all his previous books. If you like Jaws then you are going to love this. There was plenty of action and adventure through out this book. Just give it a try you will enjoy it.

Stop with the Stygian!

Enjoyed the storey and narration. But I have the storey 3* as the author can't seem to find another definition of a dark blackness. Yes, Stygian relates to the River Styx in Greek Mythology! But it got to the stage when I laughed out loud every time the word was said! It's not only this book by Mr Beck. Yes, it's a good word but please try some others!

not great.

I love Greig Beck found his stories inventive and light hearted.
but this was an exercise in self gratification.
it was about 4hs to long.
shame.
