Mermaids. They found them. And mermaids are not friendly. Mermaids are predators. Vicious predators.
And now, the entertainment company is planning a second voyage. A film crew and several scientists are going back to find out what happened and to prove mermaids exist. Imagine Entertainment wants to prove the first voyage was not a hoax. Others on the voyage have more personal reasons for joining the expedition. But the hunters just might become the hunted. Again.
I loved this book! I love a good monster story! The Mariana Trench and the Challenger Deep are fascinating for me. The deepest, darkest depth of the ocean.....nobody knows what lurks at the bottom of the Challenger Deep. Nobody has ever been that deep. Close....but not that far. It's hard for me to even imagine water 7 miles deep and even harder to imagine how many undiscovered species could exist in that much water. With modern technology, much has been discovered about the Earth's oceans. But vast areas of the oceans are still unknown and unexplored. What a great setting for a monster tale! Mermaids....legends for centuries. Not only are they real.....they will rip your face off and eat you. It makes for an exciting story!
Mira Grant is a penname for Author Seanan McGuire. This is the first book I have ever read by this author. I will definitely be reading more! She has written the Newsflesh trilogy as Mira Grant as well as the Parasitology series. As Seanan McGuire she pens several fantasy series including October Daye, Wayward Children, Ghost Roads and the InCryptid series.
I listened to the audiobook version of this story. Narrated by Christine Lakin, the audio is just over 17 hours long. Lakin reads at a nice, even speed with a pleasant voice. I have hearing loss, but was easily able to hear and understand this entire book. Very enjoyable listen!
