About this listen

When a sink hole opens up near the Australian outback town of Pintalba, it uncovers a pristine cave system. Sam joins an expedition to explore the subterranean passages as paramedic support, hoping to remain unneeded at base camp. But, when one of the cavers is injured, he must overcome paralyzing claustrophobia to dive pitch-black waters and squeeze through the bowels of the earth.

Soon he will find there are fates worse than being buried alive, for in the abandoned mines and caves beneath Pintalba, there are ravenous teeth in the dark.

As a savage predator targets the group with hideous ferocity, Sam and his friends must fight for their lives if they are ever to see the sun again.

I was looking for a scifi to listen and by accident started this story. Yepp,it entertained without freaking me out or giving me nightmares so it's thumbs up from me.

This story reads exactly like a cheesy b-movie, with plenty of monsters and gore, so it's fun and enjoyable with just the right level of horror to keep you entertained. An interesting creature, with a good amount of cannon fodder characters as well as ones to root for. The narrator was well suited to the story

fun story

The miners mother was kinda terrifying. I would love to see this as a B-movie horror flick. My favourite kind of guilty pleasure movie.

Definitely worth a listen, a good story that flows well and well narrated. A simple but well written story, much better than a lot of writers who overreach.
