Week 29 Review: Deep Fathom

From Goodreads:
Ex-Navy SEAL Jack Kirkland surfaces from an aborted underwater salvage mission to find the Earth burning.

Solar flares have triggered a series of gargantuan natural disasters. Earthquakes and hellfire rock the globe. Air Force One has vanished from the skies with America's president on board. Now, with the U.S. on the narrow brink of a nuclear apocalypse, Kirkland must pilot his oceangoing exploration ship, Deep Fathom, on a desperate mission miles below the ocean's surface. There devastating secrets await him—and a power an ancient civilization could not contain has been cast out into modern day. And it will forever alter a world that's already racing toward its own destruction.

My Review:
For some reason, I had forgotten that this was a prequel novel to the Sigma series-because Lisa is in it, and then Jack is in Bloodline! So yeah, it was nice to make that connection, and just see how big this universe is!

The bad guy was very persistent. And while they good guys split up and finally beat him, well, yeah, he does some damage along the way! It was a bit creepy to read his POV's, but yeah, it was pretty great to get into his mind!

I really enjoyed the 3 POV's at the beginning, and the end, the first time through, with all these bad things happening to these people, the second time, much better outcomes, and yeah, I really enjoyed it, and the reason for the do over!

Speaking of, that do over was also reall great for Deep Fathom, because the original time, they were retrieving treasure when all the bad stuff happened, and wouldn't ever be able to retrieve it. But in the second time, since the bad things hadn't happened, they could get the treasure and it'd be all good!

I enjoyed this book so much, now to read more Sigma books!
