Into the Drowning Deep (Rolling in the Deep #1) Reviews
- NOW AVAILABLE!!! There were appetites to be sated, no matter how cold the water became, no matter how strange the sea turned. As long as there were bellies, they would need to be fed. As long as there was life in the sea, there would be teeth. i read Rolling in the Deep a cou...
- I like the main characters, it involves the ocean, I was sold pretty much from the first page. Very entertaining popcorn horror story. "Do I think they found mermaids? Yes. Of course I do. And I think the mermaids ate them all." The first Ewww!-moment early on. I like to jump...
- Tory Stewart's sister was lost when she was aboard the ship Atargatis. The whole ship was lost and there were video clips of what looked like Mermaids destroying them. But they were always discredited as being an hoax. Now the film company that sent Tory's sister out on the quest to...
- I came to this from Seanan McGuire's Every Heart a Doorway. This is not that. It's blood-thirsty, man-eating mermaids. And I loved it. It reminded me a lot of old Michael Crichton books but, you know, better. My only real complaint is that the end just kind of happened. It was conc...
- ARC provided by Hachette in exchange for an honest review. ?Ships kept on disappearing. Since the start of man?s relationship with the sea, ships kept on disappearing. So assume the mermaids have never forgotten about us. We wrote them off as legends as soon as they were no ...
- Read for Popsugar's 2018 Reading Challenge #25: A Book Set at Sea This book was so crazy and freaky and GREAT. Killer mermaids = good entertainment ...
- Killer mermaids! It's not a strict necessity to first read the short story, but I do recommend it as it explains in more detail what happened to the ship Atargatis and thus what drives certain people in this novel (not to mention that it's a glorious gore fest). To keep the premise...
- I knew Seanan McGuire/Mira Grant had it in her, somewhere. She takes the promise she had shown in Feed, her creature inventiveness from Discount Armageddon and weaves them together with the horror atmosphere from Every Heart a Doorway to create a terrifically scary tale. "News flash...
- Seven years after the fateful voyage of a doomed mockumentary hunting for signs of life in the deep, the fateful Mermaids, a truly scientific voyage is finally put together. The quest? To put the horrible rumors and/or the innuendo to rest. Or, as a few would prefer, to come back with ...
- 3 of 5 stars at The BiblioSanctum https://bibliosanctum.com/2017/12/07/... Here?s the thing: I like Seanan McGuire, but for some strange reason or another her books always seem to rub me the wrong way when she writes as Mira Grant. Because of this, I almost didn?t pick up Into t...
- "Mankind has a responsibility to the Sea." I loved this book! It is a little bit of everything. I loved that it was intelligent, well researched, fascinating, entertaining and had me at the edge of my seat. This was a real page turner for me combining horror and mystery with science...
- okay let me just be clear on this one. I am rating this 5 stars because I absolutely LOVED this and had the best time reading it, but take that with a grain of salt. I'm not saying that this was a modern day Dune, or East of Eden, or whatever other book I've rated 5 stars, because I am...
- In expanding on the ideas originally introduced in Rolling in the Deep, Mira Grant has taken a good idea, and made it truly great. I'm not a person who likes the sea, exactly - others may call it paranoia, but I prefer to term it a healthy respect for the home of prehistoric monster...
- All the stars! Mira Grant is a brilliant storyteller and she is in top form with this book. I really hope this is the beginning of a series but it can definitely be read on it's own (no dreaded cliffhanger ending). ...
- 4 stars--I really liked it. This is the book equivalent of the movie Pacific Rim. It's not high cinema, but sometimes you just really want to watch giant robots kicking the snot out of interdimensional aliens. Or, in this book's case, want to read about deep-sea monsters eating a bo...
- You'd never know that Mira Grant is the psydonym for Seanan McGuire if you only went by writing samples. Grant's books are scientifically based, horrific thrillers that keep you on edge for most of the book. Into the Drowning Deep is no exception to the rule. Right from the very two th...
- ?The trouble with discovery is that it goes two ways. For you to find something, that thing must also find you.? I read the prequel to this book, Rolling in the Deep, earlier this month and I'm so glad that I did. What a perfect set up to this book. Now, you don't need to read ...
- Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me a copy of this in exchange for an honest review. Seanan McGuire, you are a MASTER storyteller. Even when you're writing under your sci-fi/horror pseudonym, I love every single thing you write. I don't know how you do it, and so ...
- ?It was beautiful, in its own terrible way. So many monsters are.? Having read the novella that introduced these murdering mermaids, I had rather high expectations for this thriller/horror. Grant I?m happy to say didn?t disappoint. Seven years have passed since the even...
- You know a book has gotten to you when you want to sleep with the lights on even though you are miles away from the setting of said book (in this case the ocean) and couldn?t POSSIBLY be in any kind of danger from the events that you?ve just read about. I mean they are fictional an...
- Basically this is like Jurassic Park at sea, with face eating mermaids instead of velociraptors. If that sounds appealing, you will probably enjoy it. I think this is my favourite Mira Grant novel since Feed. ...
- The Atargatis was carrying a film crew that set out to make a mockumentary about the ?truth? behind the mermaid myth. But the ship was lost at sea, and the surviving footage went viral ? footage that showed vicious man-eating mer-monsters devouring everyone on board. Seven years ...
- 4ish stars. This is my first Mira Grant book, although I've really enjoyed everything written by her as Seanan McGuire. It has her signature writing style, but instead of the fantastical inventiveness used in her McGuire books, Grant is decidedly more science fictional. And bloody. ...
- "Did you really think we were the apex predators of the world?" -Dr. Jillian Toth I know others have used this quote, but it was the most stand-out of the book to give an inkling of what you're in for in this story. In fact, it is used as an epigraph within the novel. Anyway, so tw...
- You can find my review on my blog by clicking here. Reminiscent of Alien and Jurassic Park, Into the Drowning Deep is Mira Grant?s exploration of mermaids in their most natural and wicked form. Author of Feed and Parasite, she is also known for Rosemary and Rue and Every Heart a D...
- "Did you really think we were the apex predators of the world?" -Dr. Jillian Toth AAHHH! How can I write a review to do this book justice? I don't think I can convey just how glorious of a storyteller Mira Grant (AKA Seanan McGuire) is. The way I feel about her writing is similar t...
- ?It was beautiful, in its own terrible way. So many monsters are.? It has been FIVE MONTHS and I still have not stopped thinking about how great this book was and how much I love it and how much I want to reread it every day of my life Into the Drowning Deep is all the best of...
- I?m not a fan of horror, so let?s see how this one goes. MERMAIDS, I?m a fan. Please, be good! I really want to like it. ...
- If you are a horror junkie, you should check out this awesome book! I mean come on, KILLER MERMAIDS! You can't get much better than that! The only reason I gave this 4 stars is because there was a bit of inconsistencies but it was an ARC so they may have changed that!? You can check...
- If you love your little mermaid and wish for her to remain untainted, turn back now?.I repeat turn back now. I am a huge mermaid fan, a Disney mermaid fan. This book had it?s high point when I was left speechless at what I read and kept reading until it hit a wall of the bottoml...
