To be honest, I don’t really know how to review this book other than to say it scared the shit out of me – psychologically, mentally, and emotionally. Believe what the rest of the people are saying: when they say this book is horror, they fucking mean it. 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.Īnd here I thought I knew what real horror was about… man, this book sure put me in my place, because it took “scary” to the extremes and put “mindfuck” right alongside it for good measure. A bit of warning, folks: this book is not for the faint of heart. In order to study this phenomenon, a special research lab, the Trieste, has been built eight miles under the sea’s surface.

It may just be the key to a universal 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. Then their bodies forget how to function involuntarily…and there is no cure. 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.

This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review. I received this book for free from Gallery Books in exchange for an honest review.
