I was totally creeped out by this book. I enjoyed it very much and look forward to reading more work of this writer. ( )

I am scared of this man. Jesus butt-humping Christ. ( )

Shocking and utterly depressing horror.

Not normally my cup of tea, but I was intrigued by the plague that was destroying the normal lives of humans worldwide. It was causing people to forget things and eventually they forgot to breathe and died. Searching for a cure, scientists have gone to the deepest part of the ocean to study a substance that has been found that they hope will help.

A veterinarian, Lucas (Like) Nelson, receives a message that the deep-sea station 8 miles below has gone dark and the scientists there incommunicado. His brother, the brilliant Dr. Clayton Nelson wants him and is down there in the Trieste working with two other men on their discovery. Luke is meant to go down and find out what is going on. He will soon be very sorry he did.

This was crazy descriptive with all kinds of hideousness. I recommend no one read this alone, late at night, without all the lights on. I both listened to the audiobook and read along, and all the icky stuff is within. The dreams are nightmares, and the waking experiences mostly match. it was all quite too much, and I kept going hoping that something good would come of it.

I ended up being a bit disappointed because the whole plague thing fizzled out and was never really part of the plot in the end. Every type of grossness imaginable in this book.

Thanks to the publisher for the e-book and I got the audio version from the library. The narrator was quite apt with the voices and the many different sounds and noises. ( )

i just sat on my couch for like 6 hours straight finishing this in record time because something about the way nick cutter writes just absolutely grips me and won't let go until i'm finished. this gave me annihilation and life (2017) and event horizon vibes. fucked me all the way UP!!!!!!!!!! also mr. cutter answer for your crimes of not letting LB live :( rip to a real one ( )

This book...was a wild ride. I was really into the kind of spooky vibe it had in the first half, with some weird stuff happening here and there. Towards the end though, after section 4 or 5 I think, it got SUPER weird, like, did I accidently take a drug weird. I don't know how to process the ending, in fact I hated the ending, it could have gone so many other ways but it chose the weirdest possible thing it could have done. I just don't know what to do about it. Also I don't like what happened to Alice. ( )
