This is not the type of book I typically go for, but I decided to take a chance because I have a deep love of sea creatures. Well, not only did I enjoy it, but it made me cry. As a horror fan, I love tension in a novel - and all of the dramatic irony made for some great tension as I waited for the characters to figure out what I already knew. Speaking of the characters, it was easy to fall in love with all of them. Especially Marcellus, who stole the show.
