From Below

De: Darcy Coates

Narrado por: Abby Craden

No light. No air. No escape.

Hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surface, a graveyard waits. Years ago, the SS Arcadia vanished without a trace during a routine voyage. Though a strange, garbled emergency message was broadcast, neither the ship nor any of its crew could be found. Sixty years later, its wreck has finally been discovered more than three hundred miles from its intended course: a silent graveyard deep beneath the ocean's surface, eagerly waiting for the first sign of life.

Cove and her dive team have been granted permission to explore the Arcadia's rusting hull. Their purpose is straightforward: examine the wreck, film everything, and, if possible, uncover how and why the supposedly unsinkable ship vanished. But the Arcadia has not yet had its fill of death, and something dark and hungry watches from below. With limited oxygen and the ship slowly closing in around them, Cove and her team will have to fight their way free of the unspeakable horror now desperate to claim them.

From Below

This book kept me engage and entertain with spooky vibes from deep under the cold sea.

At least there was a resolution?

Overly breathless, too much tell and not enough show. There wasn't enough story for the length, and it seemed half the time dwelled on someone feeling some variety of uneasy. It tried too hard to make the reader feel scared instead of allowing it to happen naturally.

Meh

I love Darcy Coates but I’m not sure what about this book doesn’t grip me. Sure it’s “creepy” but meh. I couldn’t wait to get through it to move on. I’d recommend her other novels over this for sure.

Captivated from the first chapter!

I genuinely enjoyed this story. Great storyline, so much suspense with many twists and turns. The author added in great detail and I could picture everything as it was happening. I found the ending to be quite clever. The narrator was excellent and had a different voice and personality for each character.

Creepier than I thought it would be

It took a little while to get going but when it did, it was pretty creepy.

Keep me on my edge of my seat!!

This was so FUN & kept me wanting to keep listening & not stop! My hair on my arms stood up almost the whole time after dive 2 until the end. Loved it!!!

Such a unique story

This book was a massive success. Very well written a preformed. I will be reading/listening to more books from this author.

A deep water fright

I enjoyed the spin on what usually happens on the land happening g under water. The story was just scary enough to keep me awake but not enough for nightmares.

Great story!

I loved this story, and the audiobook was great. I did notice that there were some pretty big differences between the book and the audiobook from time to time, but nothing too distracting. Overall, this goes down as one of my favorite books of all time.

Good spooky dive story

As a diver myself, I enjoyed this story! I thought the performance could’ve been better but didn’t take away from the book.
