About this listen

From 1945 to 1968, witness Quint survive the greatest naval tragedy in history with the sinking of the USS Indianapolis, and the events that bring him to Amity Island where he becomes a legend of the North Atlantic. A descent into one man's struggle with survivor's guilt from war and dealing with the post-traumatic stress inflicted by losing his friends to sharks leads to a psychological battle against a cunning politician and an island that wields a great secret.

A Jaws universe expansion novel providing details and backstory to enhance the performances in the original movie. For the 50th Anniversary in 2025, after you experience The Book of Quint, watch Jaws again for the first time.

Absolutely phenomenal

I’ve read the book a handful of times so far because there’s just so much detail…however, the audiobook is a completely different experience. This isn’t just narration but more of a play. The brilliant reading and ability to relay the different dialects and accents makes you feel like you’re watching this as a movie. This book is hands down my favorite action story ever written and I feel it’s an even better story than Jaws (movie story)..
This incredible book needs to be made into a motion picture by Spielberg to properly bookmark his career. 10/10

Fan service done right

In this definitive backstory of Robert Shaw’s character, we follow Quint through the USS Indianapolis tragedy, all the way to Amity. The USS Indianapolis chapters are gripping and told with respect. Parts 2-3 are rich in homage and details that any Jaws fan will love. Not only does this audiobook expand the Jaws fandom but also enhances the first and second films. Whether you’re looking for a Jaws prequel story , or are captivated by Robert Shaw‘s character. This audiobook will cash in all of those needs and spare no expense!
