About this listen

“Few writers do it better than Child.” (Booklist)

Former naval doctor Peter Crane is urgently summoned to a remote oil platform in the North Atlantic to help diagnose a bizarre medical condition spreading through the rig. But when he arrives, Crane learns that the real trouble lies far below—on Deep Storm, a stunningly advanced science research facility built two miles beneath the surface on the ocean floor. The top-secret structure has been designed for one purpose: to excavate a recently discovered undersea site that may hold the answers to a mystery steeped in centuries of myth and speculation.

Sworn to secrecy, Dr. Crane descends to Deep Storm.

A year earlier, he is told, routine drilling uncovered the remains of mankind’s most sophisticated ancient civilization: the legendary Atlantis. But now that the site is being excavated, a series of disturbing illnesses has begun to affect the operation. As Crane is indoctrinated into the strange world of Deep Storm and commences his investigation, he begins to suspect that the covert facility conceals something more complicated than a medical mystery. The discovery of Atlantis might, in fact, be a cover for something far more sinister...and deadly.

Critic reviews

"Child delivers a well-crafted and literate science-fiction thriller." ( Publishers Weekly)
"The story is imaginative and filled with wonder. Lovers of deep-sea adventure (and in particular fans of the James Cameron movie The Abyss or Michael Crichton's novel Sphere) will want to plunge into this one. ( Booklist)

I enjoyed this book, easy-listening storyline, and excellent interpretation by Scott Brick. Oil platforms, deep submersibles and a hint of aliens - make a good film!

Nice idea, but after an interesting start, the writing became somewhat formulaic and predictable. Too many implausible plot lines and characters. I only made it to the end in the hope it would improve. Sadly it didn't.

Nice idea

The narrator totally spoiled this for me. His voice was monotonous,the characters voices all sounded the same and was often in danger of putting me to sleep. In fact I didn't even finish listening to it. He made it so boring!
Shame as the story is great ( I've read the book) it has , twists and turns that keep you guessing to the end.

Good story but the narrator puts you to sleep
