  <default_description>Ein Fischer verschwindet spurlos vor Peru. In Kanada greifen Wale Touristen an. Das Meer erhebt sich gegen die Menschheit. Zwei engagierte Wissenschaftler und eine couragierte Journalistin erforschen die bedrohlichen Ereignisse - und kommen einer unheimlichen Wahrheit auf die Spur ... Frank Sch&#228;tzings grandioser Thriller wurde vor zwei jahren zum ph&#228;nomenalen Sensationserfolg. F&#252;r die packende und atemberaubend spannende H&#246;rbuchversion &#252;bernahm er selbst die Regie.

    <body><![CDATA[Vom Erzählstil würde ich diesem Buch maximal 2 Sterne geben, selten wurden in einem Buch so oft Lippen geschürzt. Die langwierigen Beschreibungen, z.B. des Inneren des Kriegsschiffs verwirrten eher, als dass sie halfen.

    <body><![CDATA[Dreiviertel des Buchs gehören zum Besten, was ich jemals gelesen habe. Der Aufbau der Katastrophe, die Unterfütterung der Handlung mit wissenschaftlichen Ausführungen ist gelungen... aber dann schwenkt das Buch leider gegen Ende um in einen esoterischen Science Fiction. Schade.<br/>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Big fat page turning thriller -- the ocean strikes back! Lots of fun facts about marine life, wonderful ideas and plot twists, and tons of suspense. The kind of book that puts a marriage to the test: &quot;Not tonight, honey, I'm reading...&quot;]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[A brilliant science fiction novel with so many twists and turns so that it lets you guess until the end. Beautifully written and despite its 600 pages it's never a dread to read. I can also strongly recommend the audio book.]]></body>
