About this listen

It’s August in Alaska, and geology professor Jack Oswald prepares for the new school year. But when hundreds of huge holes mysteriously appear overnight in the frozen tundra north of the Arctic Circle, Jack receives an unexpected phone call. An oil company exec hires Jack to investigate, and he picks his climatologist wife and two of their graduate students as his team.

Uncharacteristically, Jack also lets Aileen O’Shannon, a bewitchingly beautiful young photojournalist, talk him into coming along as their photographer. When they arrive in the remote oil town of Deadhorse, the exec and a biologist to protect them from wild animals join the team. Their task: to assess the risk of more holes opening under the Trans-Alaska Pipeline and the wells and pipelines that feed it. But they discover a far worse danger lurks below.

When it emerges, it threatens to shatter Jack’s unshakable faith in science. And destroy us all....

Good foundation for fantasy

Firesmith tells a good story in Hell Holes: What Lurks Below. The concept of this story was good, and the story was enjoyable. To me, it's a cross between sci-fi slash fantasy and horror. It had a long build-up but it was well written. It felt like it had a lot of different things that were going on, maybe a little too much. Firesmith writes a good story, and there were probably several going on within this one. It was a good read, very thrilling at times. I did read the story, and enjoyed it, but I also really enjoyed this audiobook. The characters were raw and very relatable. This author brings the stories to life, and now taht it's on audio, there is a real feeling of story and it was narrated very well. I liked reading the story, but really enjoyed listening to it. Hell Holes: What Lurks Belowon audiobook is a definite listening recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I look forward to listening to many more stories by this author.
