À propos de cet audio
From the acclaimed author of The Troop - which Stephen King raved "scared the hell out of me and I couldn't put it down.... old-school horror at its best" - comes this utterly terrifying novel where The Abyss meets The Shining.
A strange plague called the "Gets" is decimating humanity on a global scale. It causes people to forget - small things at first, like where they left their keys... then the not-so-small things like how to drive, or the letters of the alphabet. Then their bodies forget how to function involuntarily - and there is no cure. But now, far below the surface of the Pacific Ocean, deep in the Marianas Trench, an heretofore unknown substance hailed as "ambrosia" has been discovered - a universal healer, from initial reports. It may just be the key to a universal cure. In order to study this phenomenon, a special research lab, the Trieste, has been built eight miles under the sea's surface. But now the station is incommunicado, and it's up to a brave few to descend through the lightless fathoms in hopes of unraveling the mysteries lurking at those crushing depths - and perhaps to encounter an evil blacker than anything one could possibly imagine.
Part horror, part psychological nightmare, The Deep is a novel that fans of Stephen King and Clive Barker won't want to miss - especially if you're afraid of the dark.

An Interesting Listen

If you've never read anything by Nick Cutter, I'd recommend The Troop a thousand times before I'd recommend this one.
If you're turned off by the pandemic premise of this story, don't be; it's a pretty minor plot point that doesn't get talked about a lot after the first couple of chapters.
The narrator does a great job, but the plot meanders a fair bit, and there's a lot of blurring of the line between reality and dreams/delusions, which I personally dislike. There's a bit of a payoff at the end, but by that point, I had kinda stopped caring about any of it.
Underwhelming

As someone who's always been fascinated by the sea and the mystery of it, this was right up my alley. It's filled with disturbing themes basically from the get-go before things go completely off the rails and into insanity in the final acts.
This book is full of nightmares. Literally, almost half of it is the main character, Luke, working through his dark family life and trauma, to the sheer mayhem that awaits him at the bottom of the sea. The descriptions make every horrifying moment visceral, especially with the audio narration.
Luke is a tragic character stuck in a horrible situation, and you just can't help but root for the guy as he is literally in over his head. While he gets some development, most of it comes at the expense of his pain.
This is not a happy book. That said, I am impressed by the writing. It's very immersive and perfect for Halloween, but make sure you have a comfort snack or something lighter afterward. It's twisted and intense and is not going to be to everyone's taste, but if you're a fan of John Carpenter's THE THING, you will find a lot to enjoy here.
