Story
Hundreds of feet beneath the ocean's surface, a graveyard waits. Years ago, the SS Arcadia vanished without a trace during a routine voyage. Though a strange, garbled emergency message was broadcast, neither the ship nor any of its crew could be found. Sixty years later, its wreck has finally been discovered more than three hundred miles from its intended course: a silent graveyard deep beneath the ocean's surface, eagerly waiting for the first sign of life.

Story
The red night of bells heralds global catastrophe. Annihilation on a biblical scale. Seeing the morning is no blessing. The handful of scattered survivors are confronted by blood-red skies and an infestation of predatory horrors that never originated on earth. An occupying force intent on erasing the remnants of animal life from the planet. Across the deserted landscapes of England, bereft of infrastructure and society, the overlooked can either hide or try to outrun the infernal hunting terrors. Until a rumour emerges claiming that the sea may offer an escape.

Story
From New York Times best-selling author Mira Grant comes a vision of a decade in the future, where humanity thrives in the absence of sickness and disease. We owe our good health to a humble parasite—a genetically engineered tapeworm developed by the pioneering SymboGen Corporation. When implanted, the Intestinal Bodyguard worm protects us from illness, boosts our immune system—even secretes designer drugs. It's been successful beyond the scientists' wildest dreams. Now, years on, almost every human being has a SymboGen tapeworm living within them.

When Gyre Price lied her way into this expedition, she thought she’d be mapping mineral deposits and that her biggest problems would be cave collapses and gear malfunctions. She also thought that the fat paycheck - enough to get her off-planet and on the trail of her mother - meant she’d get a skilled surface team, monitoring her suit and environment, keeping her safe. Keeping her sane. Instead, she got Em. Em sees nothing wrong with controlling Gyre’s body with drugs or withholding critical information to “ensure the smooth operation” of her expedition.

The shooting, justified by self-defense, shakes the young FBI agent to her core. Devastated, Odessa is placed on desk leave pending a full investigation.

Publisher's Summary
New York Times best-selling author Mira Grant, author of the renowned Newsflesh series, returns with a novel that takes us to a new world of ancient mysteries and mythological dangers come to life.
The ocean is home to many myths,
But some are deadly....
Seven years ago the Atargatis set off on a voyage to the Mariana Trench to film a mockumentary bringing to life ancient sea creatures of legend. It was lost at sea with all hands. Some have called it a hoax; others have called it a tragedy.
Now a new crew has been assembled. But this time they're not out to entertain. Some seek to validate their life's work. Some seek the greatest hunt of all. Some seek the truth. But for the ambitious young scientist Victoria Stewart, this is a voyage to uncover the fate of the sister she lost.
Whatever the truth may be, it will be found only below the waves.
But the secrets of the deep come with a price.

Intelligent and Tense
One of my new favourite horror books. INTO THE DROWNING DEEP is tense, thrilling, smart, unique, and a bloody good time. It is a perfect blend of horror and the supernatural, with a believable cast of characters and some truly terrifying creature designs. I was hooked from beginning to end.
The story follows a research team as they sail to the Mariana Trench in search of mermaids. On arriving, the team swiftly learns that these creatures are more dangerous than they could possibly have been prepared for.
There is a large cast with many characters, each of whom have different personalities to remain distinct, and I felt that they were given the right amount of depth. Not everyone was given an abundance of page time, but everyone felt like a real person. And the slower beginning allowed me to connect with the cast and care about them.
I loved the blend of science, ASL, and research. I love books that entertain as well as educate. The prose and plot were solid enough that nothing felt out of place or overbearing. There were a few moments near the end that could have been tightened or expanded on, but I was so entertained and tense that I still enjoyed every moment. Mira Grant was inventive in her plot, making it impossible to predict anything that would happen.
If you're a fan of the Alien movies and horror stories set in the ocean, this book is perfect for you. It's exciting, has high stakes, a good cast, and is incredibly smart. One of my favourite books of the year, and one of my favorite horror novels!

Long and not very exciting
This was pretty long and I stuck with it to see if it would get more interesting or surprise me in any way but it did not. I found the biology of the sirens interesting, especially the organisms growing in their hair. That’s about it.

pros and cons
pros:
• beautifully written and researched
• very bingeable (couldn’t stop listening)
• some compelling characters
cons:
• suffering from the “main characters are unkillable” disease (how many near deaths can there be before there’s no tension anymore because you just know that only the minor characters die?)
• Very kitsch and cliché ending
• [mild spoilers] if you’ve played Dragon Age: Origins and know the Broodmother, the ending “twist” of the book is going to be very familiar to you.
**about the narrator** loved her voice, the way she read was incredible, but PLEASE, NEVER ATTEMPT AN AUSTRALIAN OR A FRENCH CANADIAN ACCENT EVER AGAIN. Glad they were minor characters ‘cause the fake accent was so goddamn awful. I, myself, am french canadian and I was wondering if she thought we were russians with that accent. Big yikes.
