Publisher's Summary

It was the greatest predator of all time, the most fearsome creature that ever lived - a 70-foot, 70,000-pound great white shark. Its jaws, filled with hundreds of seven-inch serrated teeth, could swallow an elephant whole. It could sense its prey from miles away, and if you ever came close enough to see the monster, it was already too late.

Eighteen years have passed since Jonas Taylor last crossed paths with Carcharodon megalodon. Now a middle-aged father of two, he is overwhelmed by mountains of bills and the daily strife of raising a family. But life is about to change. A Hollywood television producer wants Jonas to join his new survival series: Daredevils. For the next six weeks, two teams of crazy daredevils on a South Pacific Ocean voyage will try to outperform one another in front of the cameras. Jonas needs the money, and working on the color commentary seems easy enough. But behind the scenes, someone else is pulling the strings. And before it's over, Jonas will again come face-to-face with the most dangerous creatures ever to stalk the oceans.

Riveting

Meg: Primal Waters is a fantastical world of excitement, horror and chaos. It's balanced with world wide historical flashbacks looking back into the MEG's evolution, a wonderful broad range of characters and constant plot twists.

It was a pleasure to listen to sue to the brilliant narration by Mr Szarabajka.

Megs, Megs everywhere...

I read this after reading the sequel Hell’s Aquarium, and I loved it. Better than the sequel. More Megs, more action, lots of silly situations resulting in awesome deaths. Pretty good head count in this one.
Minus a star in the performance for the terrible Aussie accents.

Skip the first 3/4

A story about unpleasant people in an unhappy relationship, doing terrible parenting, against a background of scantily-clad posers. Plus a meg surfaces to eat things. I would recommend skipping to the last quarter where the sharks get more action and the characters are magically transformed into bearable human beings.
