Mega Series, Book 1

By: Jake Bible

Narrated by: Neil Hellegers

There is something in the deep. Something large. Something hungry. Something prehistoric. And Team Grendel must find it, fight it, and kill it.

Kinsey Thorne, the first female US Navy SEAL candidate has hit rock bottom. Having washed out of the Navy, she turned to every drink and drug she could get her hands on. Until her father and cousins, all ex-Navy SEALS themselves, offer her a way back into the life: as part of a private, elite combat team being put together to find and hunt down an impossible monster in the Indian Ocean. Kinsey has a second chance, but can she live through it?

Grab-A** galore

Professional Seal vets ragging on each other all the time. No chain of command.
“Abandon ship it’s every man for himself.” Thumbs down.

Fun overall

Quick fun listen with good narration. The big drawback is the characters. The cousins and some of the side characters were good, but the main characters were flat out unlikeable and became likeable. Also, and this author isn't as bad as some, wink wink movie references are bad dialogue

Great story

really liked the story just wished the narrator made the voices a bit more different and appropriate for the characters

So much fun!

I listened to the original recording of this audiobook and found it decent, but nothing thrilling. However, as a fan of Jake Bible I saw he had a following with this series. With a new narrator, and renewed enthusiasm from him and the base, I gave it another shot. I’ve made some stupid decisions in life, but this was not one of them!

Neil Hellegers crushed this performance. He brought an entirely new attitude to the characters that conveyed the type of enjoyment I was hoping for from the original. What a difference the right narrator can make!

Love a great big scary!

I read this before but forgot to write the review.( I often read/listen to a few then review them all at the same time.) I bought the audible thinking I hadn't read it yet. I enjoyed it again! 😁
I liked the twists, action, suspense, and characters. The characters weren't as personable as other of his books.
The narrator was not right for this book in my opinion. He was okay and I could hear him as a narrator for other books but just not this one.
