Historia
From New York Times best-selling author Stephen Graham Jones comes a novel that is equal parts psychological horror and cutting social commentary on identity politics and the American-Indian experience. Fans of Jordan Peele and Tommy Orange will love this story as it follows the lives of four American-Indian men and their families, all haunted by a disturbing, deadly event that took place in their youth. Years later, they find themselves tracked by an entity bent on revenge, totally helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in a vengeful way.

We think we understand the laws of physics. We think a lot of things. It was perhaps inevitable that some of them would turn out to be wrong. When the great incursion occurred, no one was prepared. Of all the things physicists had predicted, "the fabric of reality might rip open and giant monsters could come pouring through" had not made the list. But somehow, that was precisely what happened.

As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined...until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing - and too earth-shattering in its implications - to be forgotten. In this audiobook, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it.

A group of close friends gathers at a secluded cabin in the wintry mountains of Colorado for a final holiday hurrah. Instead, it may be their last stand. First a massive blizzard leaves them marooned. Then the more chilling realization: Something is lurking in the woods, watching them, waiting.... Now a weekend of family, friends, and fun has turned into a test of love and loyalty in the face of inhuman horrors. The only hope for those huddled inside is to fight - tooth and nail, bullet and blade - for their lives. Otherwise, they’ll end up like the monsters’ other victims: bright pools of blood on glittering snow, screams lost in the vast mountains.

A world in which a handful of panicky survivors choose sides - or are chosen.

Resumen del Editor
New York Times best-selling author Mira Grant, author of the renowned Newsflesh series, returns with a novel that takes us to a new world of ancient mysteries and mythological dangers come to life.
The ocean is home to many myths,
But some are deadly....
Seven years ago the Atargatis set off on a voyage to the Mariana Trench to film a mockumentary bringing to life ancient sea creatures of legend. It was lost at sea with all hands. Some have called it a hoax; others have called it a tragedy.
Now a new crew has been assembled. But this time they're not out to entertain. Some seek to validate their life's work. Some seek the greatest hunt of all. Some seek the truth. But for the ambitious young scientist Victoria Stewart, this is a voyage to uncover the fate of the sister she lost.
Whatever the truth may be, it will be found only below the waves.
But the secrets of the deep come with a price.

On June 30, 1908, an object fell from the sky, releasing more energy than a thousand Hiroshima bombs. A Siberian forest was flattened, but the strike left no significant crater. The anomaly came to be known as the Tunguska Event, and scientists have never agreed whether it was the largest meteor strike in recorded history - or something else. Alien artifacts have been uncovered since the 1908 event, and a new star drive is discovered.

When the CDC and the full resources of a US "threat interdiction" team fails to uncover the source of the devastation, Dan and a brilliant marine biologist, Rachel Sullivan, must race to unravel an unimaginable, ancient mystery in the murky depths.

Devi Morris isn't your average mercenary. She has plans. Big ones. And a ton of ambition. It's a combination that's going to get her killed one day - but not just yet. That is, until she gets a job on a tiny trade ship with a nasty reputation for surprises. The Glorious Fool isn't misnamed; it likes to get into trouble, so much so that one year of security work under its captain is equal to five years everywhere else. With odds like that, Devi knows she's found the perfect way to get the jump on the next part of her plan.

Modern medicine has conquered or contained many of the diseases that used to carry children away before their time, reducing mortality and improving health. Vaccination and treatment are widely available. There are still monsters left to fight, but the old ones, the simple ones, trouble us no more. Or so we thought. For with the reduction in danger comes the erosion of memory, as pandemics fade from memory into story into fairy tale. Those old diseases can't have been so bad, people say, or we wouldn't be here to talk about them. They're never coming back.... It begins with a fever.

A rare glimpse of non-human cognition.
It is rare to read a book with non-human languages, thought and societies which truly feel appropriately alien. Grant offers a thrilling fast read which turns classic fantasy into smart science fiction.

Another excellent story from Mira Grant
Another fascinating story from Mira Grant, pitting men against the ravages of nature. I have a new respect for the ocean and its creatures. The human story that evolves in the midst of this conflict is also satisfyingly intimate and accurate, leaving the reader hopeful for mankind, but also wary of its great weaknesses.
Christine Lakin is a master narrator. Every one of the many characters has a distinct voice and personality. What a delight.

KILLER MERMAIDS
Scary fun, for what it is. Seems to have a bit too much filler, though. The ending was kind of anticlimactic after all that, but still not a waste of time.
3 stars for the killer mermaids.

Very good book! Entertaining and fun.
Definitely an entertaining book. It's written beautifully and the audiobook I listened to had a great narrator. The characters are quite enjoyable and their personalities are well. Though one of the main characters did get a bit annoying there to the end however it can be forgiven. I love the idea of mermaids and love that this is a horror novel. Without giving too much spoilers the book leads you on a very adventurous but kind of slow paced search for mermaids. The ending I feel could have been more exciting but it did end pretty good. Some things are a bit unrealistic however that can be forgiven too. I find this novel very entertaining and I definitely would recommend it to anyone who likes sci-fi and mermaids!

Mermaids?
This will make an excellent film. You have a run of the mill standard of character types. But they are all very interesting. Lots of strong females. Made me reconsider the sweet mermaid images we have seen.

Murderous mermaids, meh...
Ok, I will start by saying I picked this book knowing it was going to be a bit of a mind bender. I am totally open to exploring genres I don't usually read. The story starts out with a super cool premise - a boat filming a mockumentary on mermaids disappears in the Mariana Trench but recovered video coverage exposes a blood bath and these purportedly savage mermaid-esque creatures who caused all the blood letting. Was it a hoax or a legit marine disaster? The sister of one of the victims is a marine biologist and ends up on a return mission that is supposed to uncover answers, even though we all know where things are going to end up. Same place, different mermaid madness. The parts of the book that I loved were also the parts that really just ended up ruining the book - all of the different schools of education - marine biology, sonar technology, communications, sign language, conservation, mythology, etc... The author did her research but she just inundates the reader with so many lectures throughout the entire book you feel like you are getting "schooled." Most of the characters are also fairly ridiculous. Sorry. Supposedly all these PHD's are out there being catty and snarky and stupid. There are two big game hunters on the boat, too, that are so idiotic it was almost offensive. In the end, great premise and research but very poor character development and storytelling killed this book.

This needs to be a movie
Narration:
Narration was solid. Did a good job at differentiating characters without overdoing it. Would listen to other books narrated by her.
Story:
The creativity in this story is amazing. Also, the technical knowledge explained throughout is done is such an engaging way. Sometimes authors can ‘over explain’ pieces of a story but this book felt very organic. Many characters at play and each with their own contributing backstory … truly fascinating. I really enjoyed the book.

Worth listening just for Michi and Jacques Abney
Not the best thing I've ever read, but perfect to have on background while working and doing chores.
It's a more progressive, environmentally-minded Michael Crichton-type story with enough scientific research and incorporation into the story to make it seem real. The book is taking place in 2022 but in this version of Earth, science has advanced slightly faster than we have now, so things like paraplegics can have their spines rebuilt and the "new Teslas" are charged by solar power. This Earth is also dealing with the consequences of climate change, and a big undercurrent theme in this story since the reason the mermaids are causing trouble is because their traditional feeding habits have been upended by changing oceans. They are basically starving to death.
Some parts of this book sound super preachy, even if (like me) you heartily agree with the sentiments. But, the more I got into the story, the more it fits with the vocal and often arrogantly righteous attitudes of the scientists who are the main characters. Their inner monologues dreaming about their imminent scientific fame and glory show the cutthroat and selfish world of "scientific discovery," almost always blinding them to the obvious danger they are walking into. I don't love this aspect of the writing, mostly because you can tell when a character is about to die or get hurt when their hubris is full-blast. The equivalent of watching a scary movie and a character is going to investigate the weird noises instead of getting the hell out of there. Most deaths are the direct result of poor choices, which makes the impact of their deaths way less harsh. One particularly chilling scene involves a woman going deep-diving in her submersible (hard pass), blatantly ignoring all the warning signs, so her death is seen as coming a mile away and it's hard to have much sympathy.
It's interesting to watch the scientists who start losing loved ones and friends suddenly go from "we are stewards of the earth and its creatures" to "nuke the killer mermaids."
In stark contrast to these conceited and often hypocritical scientists are my favorite characters, Michi and Jacques Abney. They are big-game hunters brought on as security detail, usually the sworn enemy on a boat full of passionate conservationists. Even though I despise hunters and poachers in real life, in this book they were a welcome counterpoint to the others. I like that they were honest and embraced what they were, and their passionate marriage making love on a bed full of weapons was hilarious. They also make a lot more sense being the only people equipped to actually fight the creatures attacking them. I know they are who I would want to be next to, when there are monsters everywhere.
