Come on who doesn't love a giant shark book, perfect for reading at the pool or better yet the beach. ( ) This book has a shark on its cover. So it's not a spoiler to say that it's about sharks, right? I'm not sure where I picked it up; I think possibly a sale at my library. I love animals and I love books about animals killing people (is that odd? whatever), so this was right up my alley. I finished it in a few hours on a plane trip. I think the comparisons to Michael Crichton need to stop. Anytime I've read a book that has the author described as the "next Crichton" or whatever nonsense, it never pans out. Just stop trying to be what you're not! This book? Nothing like Crichton. The writing was simple - which can be a good thing, but in this case, it wasn't. It was science-light. How the story developed was silly. For example [******SPOILER******]how did the main guy and the women captain fall in love and get engaged within the course of a few days?? Where the hell did that come from? [/SPOILER] Also, everything just seemed to fall into place too conveniently. Some of the getaway scenes didn't make sense to me. I feel like there could have been a lot done with the basic story of [******SPOILER******]megalodons still existing in the deep trenches and coming up every so often for some reason [/SPOILER] but this book completely missed that opportunity. I give it 2.5 stars for keeping me vaguely entertained for a few hours on a long, boring plane trip. Bought this book a while ago and read about 10 pages and just could not get into it. I lent it to a friend and she said it was really great and so it just goes to show how tastes differ. Back Cover Blurb: When the French government detonate a nuclear test on a remote atoll, something is woken deep in an ocean trench. The sharklike monster, thought to be extinct for 15 million years, is hunted down and destroyed by a scientist. But its only a baby and his mother is lurking in the deep. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Jaws warned us not to go in the water. Jurassic Park told us that creatures of the past could stil destroy us. And now Extinct brings a terrifying reminder that the deep is still dangerous with monstrous creatures from the past. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
