Awesome idea for a book. Significantly different from the movie adaptation as well (characters were a bit more fleshed out). Overall an entertaining read.

Don't get confused with the movie. This book offers brutal and dark scenes, paired with mystery, compelling characters. The main lesson here is that man shouldn't play god, nature is uncontrollable and unpredictable.
