The Mareeners are coming, the Mareeners are coming…. Oh and Mariner… is pronounced Mear-rin-ner…. I was sold on a premise of a 4+star novel with a sub discovering a hidden ice base, with horror and suspense, and dark mysteries… which doesn’t show up for most of the first four hours where we fumble along through a 0.5 star “adventure”, and when we finally get there…. If you’re a fan of watching terrible B movies (think, Best of the Worst), things where the plot and the elements in the story don’t make sense and you just have to laugh at someone’s honest floundering attempt to tell a story… and you have 15+ hours to kill then this may be a great novel for you.

A team of specialists led by archaeologist Ashley Carter has been hand-picked to explore this secret place and to uncover the riches it holds. Not even a tangent to a circle… well maybe a tangent because of (spoilers). Beneath the ice at the bottom of the Earth is a magnificent subterranean labyrinth, a place of breathtaking wonders and terrors beyond imagining. It’s as if Tommy Wiseau wrote a novel, where bears hunt in packs, and aircraft flaps go up, and the description “with this body my life had come full circle” was acceptable… when describing finding a body and comparing it to a different body of a different gender, continents apart, decades later, dead in an entirely different fashion, … So….not a circle…. Although written to be an action/horror/political intrigue/kitchen sink novel it continually revealed the writers lack of familiarity with the elements used in the story. Beneath the ice at the bottom of the Earth is a magnificent subterranean labyrinth, a place of breathtaking wonders - and terrors beyond imagining. I laughed myself to tears with this book. A gripping adventure from the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author of MAP OF BONES and THE DOOMSDAY KEY.
