  <description><![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt; It was the apex predator of all time, the most fearsome creature that ever lived -- a 70-foot, 70,000 pound Great White shark. Hundreds of 7-inch serrated teeth filled jaws that could swallow an elephant whole. It could sense its prey miles away, inhaling its scent as it registered the beat of its fluttering heart, and if you ever came close enough to see the monster...it was already too late.<br/><br/>Eighteen years have passed since Jonas Taylor last crossed paths with carcharodon Megalodon. Now a middle-aged father of two, he is overwhelmed by mountains of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change. A Hollywood television producer wants Jonas to join his new survival series: Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras. Jonas needs the money, and the job of doing the color commentary  seems easy enough. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas will again come face to face with the most dangerous creatures ever to stalk the Earth.<br/>&lt;/div&gt; (20040928)]]></description>

    <![CDATA[Eighteen years have passed since Angel, the Megalo-don shark, broke free of the Tanaka Lagoon and returned to the Mariana Trench. Jonas Taylor, adventurer, has become Jonas Taylor, middle-aged father of two, overwhelmed by a mountain of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change. A Hollywood television producer wants Jonas to join his new survival series, Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage, aboard a replica of a Spanish galleon, will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras. Jonas needs the money, and the job seems easy enough-doing color commentary. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas, Terry, and Mac will again come face to face with the most dangerous creature ever to stalk the Earth.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt; It was the apex predator of all time, the most fearsome creature that ever lived -- a 70-foot, 70,000 pound Great White shark. Hundreds of 7-inch serrated teeth filled jaws that could swallow an elephant whole. It could sense its prey miles away, inhaling its scent as it registered the beat of its fluttering heart, and if you ever came close enough to see the monster...it was already too late.<br/><br/>Eighteen years have passed since Jonas Taylor last crossed paths with carcharodon Megalodon. Now a middle-aged father of two, he is overwhelmed by mountains of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change. A Hollywood television producer wants Jonas to join his new survival series: Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras. Jonas needs the money, and the job of doing the color commentary  seems easy enough. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas will again come face to face with the most dangerous creatures ever to stalk the Earth.<br/>&lt;/div&gt; (20040928)]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Another fast read, highly amusing.  This is book 3, I don't have book 2, but it is another shark attack, Jaws type book, albeit mega-shark.  I'm all for the wildlife eating people, so it works for me.  ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A fun light read, filled with gory goodness as prehistoric sharks gobble everyone in sight. Alten is a fine writer who creates good characters and paces the novel very well. The scientific jargon is there but relatively limited and doesn't get in the way of the story. <br/><br/>A great summer book...]]></body>

Hundreds of 7-inch serrated teeth filled jaws that could swallow an elephant whole. It could sense its prey miles away, inhaling its scent as it registered the beat of its fluttering heart, and if you ever came close enough to see the monster...it was already too late.<br/><br/>Eighteen years have passed since Jonas Taylor last crossed paths with carcharodon Megalodon. Now a middle-aged father of two, he is overwhelmed by mountains of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change. A Hollywood television producer wants Jonas to join his new survival series: Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras. Jonas needs the money, and the job of doing the color commentary  seems easy enough. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas will again come face to face with the most dangerous creatures ever to stalk the Earth.<br/>&lt;/div&gt; (20040928)]]>

    <![CDATA[Eighteen years have passed since Angel, the Megalodon shark broke free of the Tanaka Lagoon and returned to the Mariana Trench. Meanwhile, Jonas Taylor-adventurer, has become Jonas Taylor, middle-aged father of two, overwhelmed by mountains of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change.<br/><br/>A Hollywood television producer wants Jonah to join his new survival series: Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage on-board a replica of a Spanish Galleon will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras.<br/><br/>Jonas needs the money, and the job seems easy enough-doing color commentary. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas, Terry, and Mac will again come face to face with the most dangerous creatures ever to stalk the Earth.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[A truly disappointing third novel in the &quot;Meg&quot; series that is mostly just a lame rehash of the original book with more characters.  It's tedious and extremely boring, but when there's a Megalodon attack it becomes semi amusing.  Doesn't even come close to being as fun as &quot;The Trench&quot;...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/22917623">more...</a>]]></body>
