Book Comments & Discussion
This book was originally written in German. The English translation is excellent. I could relate to and empathize with several characters. I enjoyed the premise of a collective intelligence attacking mankind for the irresponsible treatment of the oceans. I am a bit of a romantic at heart and related to the main character's relationship with his ladyfriend.

Storyline
Whales begin sinking ships. Toxic, eyeless crabs poison Long Island's water supply. The North Sea shelf collapses, killing thousands in Europe. Around the world, countries are beginning to feel the effects of the ocean's revenge as the seas and their inhabitants begin a violent revolution against mankind. At stake is the survival of the Earth's fragile ecology—and ultimately, the survival of the human race itself.
The apocalyptic catastrophes of The Day After Tomorrow meet the watery menace of The Abyss in this gripping, scientifically realistic, and utterly imaginative thriller.
