Meg is an exciting and bombastic novel starring a crew of paper-doll people, a term I use for characters with wafer-thin depth. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the women were the worst victims of Alten's lack of imagination when plotting his characters. I cannot vouch for the scientific accuracy of the story since I'm not a marine biologist, but some assertions did seem a little... fishy... Otherwise, the story was very entertaining to follow and I understand both why it was sold to movie producers immediately, and why it took several studios and thirty years for the movie to get made.
