Architeuthis

A Deep Sea Thriller

By: Michael Cole

Narrated by: Khai Lannor

It rules the ocean—from the blackest depths to the sunlit shallows. Its arms can crush steel. Its beak can tear warships apart. Once, it stayed hidden. Now, it hunts.

When a ruthless pirate syndicate builds a drug empire in the Andaman Sea, ex-soldier Kane Carpenter and his private team are sent to dismantle it. But in their hunt, they uncover a trail of wrecks—crews vanished without a trace. Kane begins to suspect another presence lurks in these waters.

That presence is no rival gang. It is a ravenous leviathan—an Architeuthis of impossible size, driven mad by a feast of sunken drugs.

Kane Carpenter has fought warlords, mercenaries, and terrorists. But nothing compares to the fury of the ocean’s oldest predator.

Fun Creature Feature

Michael Cole really made a fun short deep sea thriller here. The inclusion of modern day pirates was a nice touch. As you didn’t know who was worse the creature or the pirates. The plot flows well and the kills or satisfying. I recommend this one.

Good Action

Fast paced good story and likeable characters can't go wrong with a simple adventure
