Summary

For lovers of John Carpenter’s The Thing comes a tale of alien horror from international best-selling author Greig Beck.

100,000 years ago the object hit the lake at the deepest point, quickly sinking into its mile-deep Stygian darkness. The sheets of ice closed, time moved on and the land forgot.

But over the centuries, legends grew of people vanishing, of strange, deformed animals and of an unexplained luminescence down in the lake depths.

When Marcus Stenson won the lucrative contract to create a sturgeon fish farm on the site of disused paper mill on the shore of Lake Baikal, he thought he had won the lottery and refused to listen to the chilling folktales, or even be concerned by the occasional harassment from the local mafia.

But then animals were found mutilated in the frozen forest and people started to go missing. And worse, some came back, changed, horribly.

In the depths of the lake, something that had been waiting 100,000 years was stirring. And it needed the warmth of mankind to survive.

Seems as if changed writer halfway through

Starts as a horror inspired by The thing with a god mixed of characters and an interesting monster.

However by the end it becomes just a shoot em up with cheesy characters and an really obvious ending.

The worst sort of shlock

I don't know why this book is getting such great reviews. I don't mind cheese but this book just was not good.

It had a decent set-up but it quickly went downhill. Bad dialogue, paper-thin characters and poorly written female characters (of which their were only two in the whole book). Even the voice actor never really emoted that well.

The main characters never even reacted like they were even in danger at any point. Really the author gave us a diet-coke of a horror novel.

Sorry, a hard pass from me.

Well read, but cheesy.

It’s a well read story but the plot is rather cheesy and predictable. Ok to just switch off to though.

Bloody Amazing!

Really brilliant story. The pace was great, always something happening but never confusing. The actor reads it so well! For horror fans this is a must! Great creature feature!

B movie fub

Go into this knowing what to expect. A fun, gorey slasher flick with some nice horror elements and decent pacing.

Really enjoyed this book.

I have never heard of the author . However I am a fan now and can see he has written many books which I now really look forward to discovering listening to. I'm happy as this will keep me going for some time. Often I am disappointed with a lot of books but I still listen to most of them to the end. This book was well written with a great story that had me engaged early on and I knew I was going to enjoy it. Also, the narrator did a great job skilfully bring it alive. I thought he did a great job with the various characters voices and accents. Had I known the book was about aliens, I might of been put off a little, but the story did a great job of keeping me intrigued. I knew from the first few chapter that the mystery was extra terrestrial, but the horror and mystery elements and way the story knitted together was well paced. Also, at 12 hours long, it is great value, too many books are 4 or 5 hours long and I never entertain spending a credit on something so short. Great book, great story, well written and well narrated. I'm off now to look for more books by the author and narrator. Both have a new fan of their work.
