Story
Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real. They were seven teenagers when they first stumbled upon the horror. Now they are grown-up men and women who have gone out into the big world to gain success and happiness. But the promise they made 28 years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children.

Story
The Wizard's Council of Tarador was supposed to tell young Koren Bladewell that he is a wizard. They were supposed to tell everyone that he is not a jinx, that all the bad things that happen around him are because he can't control the power inside him, power he doesn't know about. The people of his village, even his parents, are afraid of him, afraid he is cursed. That he is a dangerous, evil jinx.

Steve doesn’t know who he is. Or who he was. He doesn’t know anything, actually. Not even where he is. Other than a vast open field of dirt. All Steve knows is that he’s apparently supposed to build a farm. At least that’s his only workable assumption. Given the number of farm-tools left to him. That and the massive number of sacks full of seeds. Unfortunately, this isn’t even the strangest part of this new life. Hidden inside the farm tools, Steve finds messages. Messages that appear in floating windows in front of him.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

Not Jaws but still a great listen
Being a fan of more the creature style stories like Jaws and White Shark, The Deep should have felt lacking but instead was excited and unexpected. Overall fun listen.

Not great.
I think we will all love Peter Benchley for his iconic work, Jaws, for all time. But this is a mediocre story at best, with a very abrupt and unsatisfying ending. For a forward looking back perspective of someone who did not grow up in the 50s/60s this is an interesting look into what would be considered main stream action in the day. I kept thinking the characters would be perfect in an Old Noire Hollywood movie. They were almost laughably stereotypical. The woman especially. Because they lack depth. If you like Benchley, read this for a peek into his mind, you can see glimmers of his fascination with sharks and the sea at large. Other than that, I'd pass. Oh the voice actor did an awesome job.

Good book
I think this was made into the movie “Into the Blue”? Or at least they are similar. Anyway…a good book with good narration. I didn’t care for the ending, as it left too many questions left unanswered. Was there a book 2? I’ll have to check.

A very "Michael Crichton" type story!
I loved this story. I remember the movie starring Robert Shaw, Nick Nolte, and Jacqueline Bisset. I really picture them as the characters in the story...especially Robert Shaw as Romer Treece! The narrator did an outstanding job with the Bermudian and Scottish voices! Great thriller, sea and treasure hunting story!

Great Adventure Tale
The Deep is a fantastic adventure tale, of mystery, scuba diving, treasure hunting, and intrigue. Someone said the story ended abruptly, which is true but very Peter Benchley-esque.
I really did not like the narrator. His Scottish accent sounded like Shrek and his female voice sounded oddly like Keanu Reeves.

Better than Jaws!
Jaws was certainly scary in it's images of a big fish, but this book captured my attention. I tried to listen every chance I got. The writing was good and the narration made it even better. I would recommend this book.

The Deep
I enjoyed this story very much, had excitement all the way through it. Peter Benchley did a better job with this one then with Jaws.

It’s okay, kinda hard to get through after a while.
I love jaws, I think Benchley has done some really awesome work, and I’m a big fan of the ocean and scuba diving, so the book started out really cool and exciting, but the more you get to know the characters, the less likable they become. Sanders is a pompous, barely competent jerk, and his wife is written to be airheaded, selfish, and overly sexual to the point where it’s just hard to take the story seriously when Benchley starts describing either of their personalities. About halfway into the story, it gets really hard to want to listen anymore. I guess it’s worth checking out while it’s included in your subscription, but I’d still say check something else out first. Also, the narrator made all of the locals in the story sound like weird pirates and laughing at that had me constantly losing any sense of immersion in the story.

It was ok
The story in itself is a great idea. A modern day treasure hunt. But the narrator nearly had me putting the book within the first hour. HE TALKS LIKE THIS! FOR EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE! From the story perspective the main character I wish would go away. The ending is slapped on there with very little attempts to make it satisfying. Questions are left in answered. Therefore, the rating. It is still a fun adventure story, but you have to get through Sanders (gag) and nearly attempted rape scene.
(Spoiler)
Sanders is almost unbelievably selfish. He has no problem having an affair on his wife, abandoning his kids and “gets over it” He is worse then Brody in the book Jaws. Im trying to figure out if Benchley intended to make his main characters hatable cause right now for me, he is 2/2. I wish the book were to focus on their sea captain friend Tres. He is almost a Jack Reacher type, and he could have done a series focusing on Tres and this random couple comes to him for help.
