    "Great book!"

    I couldn't stop thinking about this plot when I wasn't in my car listening. I love Lincoln Child and this book lived up to my expectations. Great twist.

    "Terror in the deep"

    This is truely a great book. When you start reading it is very hard to put it down again before the end. The writer catches you from the first line, and then you are cauth in the deep. It is the story of a doctor going to a secure military facility to counteract a disease that are sweping through the facility. When he gets down below the ocean he finds out, that not all is what it seemes onboard the base. I will not go into the story and telling you the outcome, it is only fit to say that suddenly the safety of the entire facility is placed on his shoulders. The way that the facility and the people are describet is very compelling. the author is giving a insight into the thoughts of the main carecters, withch is rerely seen in this kind of novel. I was very much in daught wheather to give it 4 or 5 stars. I decided to give it 4 because there are some places through out the book, where there are to long sequences, that should be shortened. Not many, and as I said it was a difficult choise. But don't take my word for it, give it a chance and judge for yourself.

    "Merely okay"

    Riddled with unexplained inconsistencies toward the end and burdened with a lot of rather spineless, unintelligent side characters, I can't give this book more than 3 stars.

    In addition, every action in the book takes so long to execute, I feel like I could have gotten the abridged version and not missed a thing.

    "Melodramatic at Best"

    Deep Storm brings a creative story line that keeps the reader guessing but only for half of the book. The second half is very predictable and the author feels compelled to drag us through melodramatic descriptions of everything...including climbing the stairs.

    The first part of the download is great. Save your time and make up the ending. The time you spend on the second half could be spend better elsewhere.

    "Don't pay money for this."

    I found the story perdictable, uninteresting and just plain stupid. I just wanted the story to end. It was like a train wreck. I keep listening wondering if it could get worse. It didn't dissapoint in that regard. The main charcter is very weak. There is no character development. The author spends most of the time describing some trivial point in the story instead of building a plot. I will not listen any of Mr. Child's work again.

    Story
    "Average potboiler..."

    Deep Storm is not bad, but it is certainly not special. Even the great Scott Brick can't work enough magic to take what amounts to a version of Chrichton's "Sphere" (and Cameron's "The Abyss") and elevate it into great literature. The reveals at the end are creative, but they also feel disengaged from the main character's journey. We never really understand why THESE characters are in THIS novel... the action around them does not really seem to elucidate much about them. They seem deep enough to breathe and bleed, but not much more than that. It's a lightweight thriller with science fiction undertones, but it reinvents nothing.
