Synopsis

Master of suspense Steve Alten always takes listeners to the edge with his non-stop, adrenaline-charged novels. Now, in The Trench, Alten shows just how deep fear can run when you don’t know what lurks beneath the surface.…Its appetite is ravenous. Its teeth, scalpel-sharp. For the first time, the captive twenty-ton Megalodon shark has tasted human blood, and it wants more.…On the other side of the world, in the silent depths of the ocean, lies the Marianas Trench, where the Megalodon has spawned since the dawn of time. Paleobiologist Jonas Taylor once dared to enter this perilous cavern. He alone faced a Megalodon shark and cut its heart out. Now, as the body count rises and the horror of a monster’s attack grips the California coast, Jonas must begin the hunt again, and return to the waking nightmare of…The Trench.

Oh, wow, what did I just read? Was this about a megashark or was it REALLY a discount-rate James Bond adventure under the sea? Hmmm. Not telling! *looks to either side, then up and to the left* Really! It's NOT just a discount-rate James Bond adventure with hokey science, stretchable wild situations, R......more

Goodreads review by Scott on August 16, 2023

Apparently, hunting prehistoric giant sharks can save a marriage. This is the adorable take-away from Steve Alten’s ridiculously pulpy novel “The Trench”, which is the second book in his strangely addictive MEG series. (The first book is now a major motion picture starring Jason Statham.) I’m not sur......more

A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man dies but one. Series still growing strong with #2 installment of MEG series. Expecting more mysterious creatures to surface in future.........more
