I enjoyed the novel (and read it nearly a decade ago, before people ever saw the Discovery Channel hoax mockumentary), this comic is meh so far (and nicely called BS on its own book-inspired cover, but in the space of two pages spells the shark species name differently), but the movie...can't bring myself to watch it so far. I don't even want to give them my money. The trailer alone gave me high blood pressure. #meg #stevealten #scifi #sciencefiction #megalodon #carcharodonmegalodon #carcharoclesmegalodon #otodusmegalodon #cmegalodon #shark #sharks #comics #comicbooks #elasmobranch #elasmobranchology #selachimorpha #marinebiology #paleontology #biology #zoology #animals #animal #fossil #fossils #dinosaur #dinosaurs

The Trench by Steve Alten. This is the book that inspired the movie MEG, I love sharks so I wanted to read this and I was not let down at all and honestly this title was better than the movie.

Meg: Generations is the first book I’ve read from Steve Alten. I saw the Meg movie and did not realize it was based on a book series. Saw this book on Netgalley and thought I’d try one. “Companies are now making big bucks from the display and shows of these captured prehistoric sea creatures. 🦈 Some escape their pens and wreak havoc on local ecosystems...and eat people. And people try to stop them. And we don’t know if they’re successful...🤷🏼‍♂️” What I liked - the action sequences were generally good. Easy to imagine the terror of man vs prehistoric sea creature. What I didn’t like - too much overexplaining of sea creature biology that didn’t add to the story. 10% of the book is about cancer protocols. And there’s NO ENDING. Not a fan of leaving characters in the middle of a scene. If you’re looking for a mindless, action story to take to the beach, this might be an option for you. Alten has a dedicated fan base and there are some 5 star reviews for this book. If you want a well written story with an ending it’s probably not for you. Thanks to @netgalley and @forgereads for the ARC. #meggenerations #stevealten #meg #netgalley #forgebooks #advancedreadingcopy #kindlebooks #bookstagram #bookshelves #bookswithcharacter #bookhoarder #bookworm #sodacityreads #bookreview #hardcover #bookcollector #bookhaul #bookspines #goodreads #homelibrary #fiction #actionadventure #thriller #bookcollection https://www.instagram.com/p/CBnzrsfg09f/?igshid=1teyhi8wmmx2u

You’ve heard of The Meg, now get ready for... 🥁 🥁 🥁 THE LOCH. I read this book ages ago but couldn’t resist getting the collectors edition. . . I still haven’t seen the Meg movie, despite my love of sharks, that book series, and especially megalodons. If you’re reading this Mr. Steve Alten, it’s not you, it’s me 😔 . . #stevealten #themeg #theloch #thetrench #hellsaquarium #anovelofdeepterror #primalwaters #megorigins #megnightstalkers #meggenerations #vostok #domian #phobos #biblophile #bookstagram #theomegaproject @stevealtenofficial https://www.instagram.com/p/BriPyjlH5DV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=gajnud0q7bz5

The cast of #TheMeg loved learning how to scuba dive – we’re firm believers that everyone would if they just give it a try! #SteveAlten
