Description

New York Times bestselling 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 only be found below the waves.
But the secrets of the deep come with a price.

        October 2, 2017
        There’s some solid gore and nastiness in this sequel to Grant’s novella Rolling in the Deep, but a mix of overwrought prose and questionable decisions prevent it from being much more than a 1990s horror throwback. Years after the ship Atargatis disappeared while attempting to film a fake mermaid documentary for Imagine Entertainment (a fictional company in the SyFy vein that inexplicably shares a name and nothing else with a real studio), the company finally decides to send another expedition, this time one with actual scientists. Key among the crew are marine biologist Victoria “Tory” Stewart, whose sister vanished on the Atargatis, and Dr. Jillian Toth, a sirenologist who considers herself a leading expert on mermaids. Grant’s concept—mermaids as vicious creatures—is golden (and a late revelation about their biology is pretty nifty), but the prose gets bogged down in cliché (“She would show them all” appears, unironically, as a standalone paragraph) and long and meandering passages with little payoff. The neat hook and Grant’s fan base will still prop the book up, but there’s too little depth in these depths.

        Mermaids are real! Executives at Imagine Entertainment know this all too well. Seven years ago, they sent a ship to the Marianas Trench to film a cryptid mockumentary as proof of their existence. But the SS Atargatis was found adrift, with all hands lost. Leaked film footage, which the public believes to be a hoax, showed sea creatures viciously attacking the crew. Now the company's founder and CEO, hoping for redemption, is sending a fully equipped, exploratory vessel back to the deep ocean. The Melusine is jam-packed with security guards, a couple of professional big-game hunters, and several scientists, including Victoria Tory Stewart, sonar expert and sister to the Atargatis reporter, and Dr. Jillian Toth, the world-famous sirenologist who provided the destination for the previous expedition but refused to go on that voyage. The mermaids are still there, and they are hungry. Can anyone hope to survive once the attack begins? Grant follows Feedback (2016) with a fast-paced thriller pitting apex predators against scientific whiz kids in an all-out horrorfest.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)

        The New York Times best-selling author of the "Newsflesh" series, Grant takes us deep into the Marianas Trench, where the Atargatis disappeared seven years previously while attempting to film a mockumentary about legendary sea creatures. Now a new mission is being launched, though with more high-minded intent. For scientist Victoria Stewart, in particular, it's a means of finding out what happened to the sister lost on the first voyage.

        Seven years ago, the Atargatis sailed on a voyage to the Mariana Trench in the Pacific to film a mocumentary about the mythological mermaids said to live in the trench. Six weeks later, the ship was discovered adrift with no survivors. Now a new team sets out to seek answers. For young marine biologist Victoria Stewart, it is finally her chance to determine what happened to her sister on that previous doomed trip--and to avoid the same fate. VERDICT Grant's ("Newsflesh" series) skillfully crafted story combines science, horror, and mystery into a gripping novel of terror on the sea. Readers will never look at mermaids in the same way again. [Previewed in Marlene Harris's "Galaxy Quests" sf/fantasy preview, LJ 4/15/17.]--KC
