Synopsis

“[Rollins] will make your toes curl and your free hand clutch the armchair as you speed through the pages.”
—Tampa Tribune“James Rollins knows adventure.”
—Chicago Sun TimesA sensational early work from “one of the most inventive storytellers writing today” (Lincoln Child)—the third pulse-pounding adventure novel from perennial New York Times bestselling thrill-master James Rollins—Deep Fathom is an extraordinary story of desperate survival and mysterious discoveries. The acclaimed creator of Sigma Force seamlessly combines action, science, lore, and breathtaking suspense in this classic tale of a lost civilization and a wondrous journey to a beguiling world beneath the sea. Part Michael Crichton, part Douglas Preston, part Indiana Jones, yet completely, exhilaratingly Rollins, Deep Fathom is an undersea roller coaster ride that never slows down from the first page through the explosive climax.

About James Rollins

Veterinary Medicine is a very time consuming, stressful profession, especially for the owner of the veterinary practice. Author, James Rollins (aka James Paul Czajkowski) began his adult career with a DVM degree from the University of Missouri in 1985. He was then working as many as 18 hours a day, while writing on his lunch time, or any spare minutes he might find. For ten years he operated his practice, employing as many as 24 staff personnel, continuing to write during spare moments. One day, he decided to reverse the job and hobby routine. He began writing full time and spent a day or so per week volunteering to do neuter surgeries at the local SPCA.

Rollins began his storytelling very early as a child, so it came naturally to him by the time he made it his main career. His writing gives the reader a look into unseen worlds, mostly underground or underwater. His books are full of originality, scientific breakthroughs, as well as historical insight. All of this packed into a fast paced story line that is honed using his basic knowledge of science and medicine. That skill sets James Rollin's books apart from the others. He is a #1 New York Times bestselling author of international thrillers that are translated into over forty languages. His "Sigma" series is his most popular.

Enjoyed another thriller from James Rollins. In this novel, an underwater fissure cause earthquakes around the world, and an old rivalry results in two men competing to either save the world to destroy it. Who will win? Great drama to sink your teeth into, and if you like learning about weather phen......more

James Rollins is shaping up to be one of my new favorite authors, but it’s not necessarily because he’s the greatest writer or that he is in any way original. Indeed, Rollins could never be accused of either one of those things. What makes Rollins so damn readable and addictive is the same reason tha......more

Goodreads review by Ben on May 18, 2011

I have not read any other books by James Rollins, but judging by his popularity I would suspect that this particular book does not represent his best efforts. The story is interesting and creative enough, but it seems somehow uncompelling and not particularly well carried out. However, the book's tr......more

Goodreads review by Brooke on April 12, 2009

My feelings about Deep Fathom are pretty in line with Rollins' first two books - fun adventure about finding hidden ancient civilizations, nothing much to write home about with regards to the writing style. It gets points for being a Bermuda Triangle mystery that doesn't actually involve the Bermuda......more
