Hi everyone! Thought this might resonate with the group's theme.
Along the Mediterranean coast, people are dying or falling ill. Marine life is vanishing. The sea, once a source of life, becomes a silent threat spreading toward global catastrophe. Called in to investigate, Dr. Marco Fassi and his team uncover something vast and unseen, pulsing beneath the water — and confront the possibility that nature itself is no longer under control.
Unlike most "end of the world" stories built around war, plague, or AI, BLOOM's apocalypse comes from something we've actually been quietly warming for decades: the ocean. It's a slow-burn science thriller grounded in real marine biology — for readers who enjoy Michael Crichton or Frank Schätzing's The Swarm, where the science of the collapse is as gripping as the collapse itself.
The book received a Literary Titan Silver Book Award and was compared to Crichton's work in their review.
I have ARC copies available for anyone interested in reading and leaving an honest review. Happy to discuss the algal bloom science behind the story too!
