Genre: Horror

Synopsis

From the acclaimed author of The Troop—which Stephen King raved “scared the hell out of me and I couldn’t put it down.…old-school horror at its best”—comes this utterly terrifying novel where The Abyss meets The Shining.

A strange plague called the ’Gets is decimating humanity on a global scale. It causes people to forget—small things at first, like where they left their keys…then the not-so-small things like how to drive, or the letters of the alphabet. Then their bodies forget how to function involuntarily…and there is no cure. But now, far below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, deep in the Marianas Trench, an heretofore unknown substance hailed as “ambrosia” has been discovered—a universal healer, from initial reports. It may just be the key to a universal cure. In order to study this phenomenon, a special research lab, the Trieste, has been built eight miles under the sea’s surface. But now the station is incommunicado, and it’s up to a brave few to descend through the lightless fathoms in hopes of unraveling the mysteries lurking at those crushing depths…and perhaps to encounter an evil blacker than anything one could possibly imagine.

I added this back on November 2014.

I really enjoyed his other book, The Troop. This one sounds just as thrilling.

Comments
  1. I think the nighttime image of the ocean surface is the best cover. It’s scary-looking, especially with the messy-on-purpose font.

  2. Tammy says:

    I’m not sure I’ve even heard of this, but I want to read it now!

  3. Sam@WLABB says:

    It’s blurbed by King. That’s pretty impressive

  4. I read The Troop a while back if you can believe it! I don’t usually go for this genre, but it was a great read. This one sounds good as well. I hope that you love it! 🙂

  5. Sophie @BewareOfTheReader says:

    I prefer the red cover Laura!

  6. czai says:

    I saw this on Booktube and I got really curious!! I just got this because it’s on sale on Kindle right now!

  7. I do like the cover in the main photo. I did DNF The Troop as I couldn’t get into it but I hope the author continues to deliver for you!

  8. Katherine says:

    The top cover is my favorite though I’m not sure it fits the blurb as well as the others. This doesn’t sound like my kind of book it sounds like perfect reading for this kind of year!
