Titulo: Peligro en las profundidades
Autor: R.L. Stine
Motivo de lectura: Letras Macabras (Isla Macabra 2023)
Lectura / Relectura: Lectura
Mi edicion: Electronico
Puntuacion: 2/5

Esta es la historia de los hermanos Billy y Sheena, y como estos niños pasan las vaciones con su tio George Deep, mas conocido como "Doctor D." quien es un doctor especializado en el mundo marino.

El terror per se no esta muy presente, siento que Stine explora mas la esencia de la maldad humana, y hasta que punto llegarian en sus actos para tener una criatura simplemente para exponerla en un Zoo.
La trama es un poco repetitiva, y para ser sincera demasiado sencilla, si tuviera que resumir el libro diria que estan

Spoiler

los malos, los niños heroes, una sirena, un tiburon y un zoo.

Este libro me aburrio, una verdadera pena.

This one was actually really god. It didn't feel as much like horror as it did thriller. I loved that it was about saving a mermaid from a life in captivity.

A slightly more matured and adventurous take that was different from the usual approach of the series. It's refreshing to see a change of pace, compared to the usual template of plot. This didn't read like a RL Stine's book, well, except the ending
