I’m weird. I think it is the ocean, but modified a bit to give the impression of a woman.

Funny about the x-ray you see in the cover …. I didn’t think of that but now that you mention it — the cover is a bit odd. At first I thought it was meant like the ocean floor but now it could be an x-ray, eeks.

I loved the technology/cable aspect but I didn’t care for some of his writing style. Too macho.

When I look at the book’s cover it looks like an x-ray of a woman’s torso. Did you notice that or is this one more sign my sanity is slipping away?

I appreciated the subject matter and it’s interesting to note that the cables under the sea these days are being destroyed on purpose by rogue entities doing this. And I liked that the story is kept a bit mysterious and that the journalist is writing a story about it and the captain is an enigma … but the twisted ending went a bit too far for me. I was wishing for a nicer ending?
