Rick Napier is a fisherman struggling to make ends meet. The situation is made even worse when a local fishing vessel mysteriously disappears, along with a Coast Guard diver sent to search for the wreckage. As events unfold, he confronts the horrible reality of a top secret government experiment gone haywire, resulting in a hybrid creature of massive proportions. Escaped from captivity in a high tech facility in the Atlantic, it seeks to fill an insatiable appetite. Napier’s life turns upside down as he witnesses the carnage and devastation, and is forced to confront a Behemoth more terrifying than anything imaginable.

slow to start, also had areas that seemed to dragged. but the action scenes made up for it.

Story started slow but it did moderately gather momentum in the end. I wish it was a bit longer and little less predictable. The narrator was awful though. I had to double check to see if it was some AI voice. It was such a disinterested lifeless performance.

Good story narrated by a lifeless zombie

"here's a ladder! grab it and climb up!" a lot of what was written seemed very unnecessary. but it was still an enjoyable listen.

also, the mercenary has the be the least intimidating character ever written.
red. blood red.

Stories of monsters and kanjis are so hard to write correctly, it's a treat to find an author who can do it. ( Well, honestly, who has gotten better at it. )

Sure it's a bit smarmy with simplistic, sometimes annoying characters. Bad guys who nearly scream out "I'm the Bad Guy!" when they are introduced. Other characters also yell things like "I'm the female Interest!", "I'm a gold hearted friend!" and such.

Behemoth is a tale that's never too complex or confusing.

However, there is a creepy dangerousness to Michael Cole's monster in this book. It's freshness makes it "weird" and that's very good to find in a monster. I found my breathing & my heart racing when book environs & characters were being destroyed. This monster is hell bent on survival and there are poor few things that can stop it. And... that's how I like my monsters.

Dear Mister Cole, can you tell me another one? Please?
Khai Lannor is a top rate narrator who never gets in the way of the tale ( thank you! )

A monster tale that's above most

Behemoth by Michael Cole is a really fun creature feature. The plot flowed fairly well and the characters were all well written. Now with most hybrids I take them with a grain of salt. However this one was actually really dangerous and interesting. The kills in this one are all pretty good. All in all I recommend this one to anyone.

That’s A Hybrid

The narrator is so bad that at first I thought this was being done by an early version of virtual narration. I was shocked to see it was an actual narrator. Virtual narration sounds more human than this narrator. I actually want to listen to the second book but am hesitant to because it is the same narrator.

Good story, awful narration n
