About this listen

Hungry as the Sea is an enthralling story of revenge, adventure and romance from best-selling author Wilbur Smith.

'Nick went head down, finning desperately to catch the swirling body which tumbled like a leaf in high wind. He had a fleeting glimpse of Baker's face, contorted with terror and lack of breath, the glass visor of his helmet already swamping with icy water as the pressure spurted through the non-return valve. The Chief's headset microphone squealed once and then went dead as the water shorted it out.'

Robbed of his wife and ousted from his huge shipping empire, Nick Berg is hell-bent on vengeance. It is the sea which gives him his opportunity. When his arch-rival's luxury liner is trapped in the tempestuous Antarctic, Nick stakes all to pit his powerful salvage tug, the Warlock, in a desperate race against time and the elements....

This is amazing story that I have read many times over the years. The audible offering is fantastic and even though it’s over 19 hours, it’s hard to stop and attend to the details of daily living. Absolutely recommend.
