Pirates, Megalodons and the Old Gods - Oh My! | AstraDaemon

MEGALODON APOCALYPSE by Eric S. Brown is a novella which would make a great dystopian action movie. Think Mad Max crazies battling The Meg in Waterworld, with a cameo from Lovecraft. Not much time to get attached to any of the characters, but they are just elaborate chum anyway. This is a conflict-driven story, complete with plenty of Michael Bay splosions. If you're looking for anything with deeper meaning, look elsewhere.

Brown did such a great job creating this terrifying future, I'd love to see another horror-thriller set in this world.

As always,
AstraDaemon
