The Deep by Nick Cutter

1.0

---

This was pretty awful. I think Cutter wanted to write three books, but instead just smashed them all into one. A pandemic story line vs. an undersea horror--Did we really need both? Irrelevant flashbacks that didn't add to the story, just interrupted it constantly in unwieldy rather than suspenseful places--more like an unrelated novel awkwardly wedged into the gaps of a first. Unremarkable characters. Too much cheap gross-out. Not enough actual horror.
