    its a CRIME how this ended. I loved the characters so so so much and the pacing was AMAZING. I was gripped the entire time but the end felt rushed and bleak just for the sake of being bleak it was a real let down. I loved your take though! amazing pixel art too! Lovely stuff!

    This video actually made me want to read the book. Spoilers are sometimes necessary to give readers that push to commit to a book. 👍

    I listened to this on audio and thought it was a great listen. The more unsettling parts of sitting and listening were tense on audio. Maybe it wouldn’t have been in text.

      Thank you! I really appreciate the feedback. I have more videos coming soon, but these style of videos take awhile to create. I'm getting faster, though, so hopefully you'll find more videos you enjoy soon.

    I thought this one was a bit of a let down after The Troop, but I still enjoyed it. Cutter is great at scenes that stay with you not because they're scary, but because they're downright disturbing.

    Alien/dimensional beings just trolling around at the end was kinda poopy to me but other than that the book was interesting,engaging, and I'd recommend it for horror fans.

      Yes! I completely agree with you. I was hooked in the beginning and I couldn't wait to find out more about the 'Gets, but that part of the story is cast away so quickly. The ending of this story just devolves into nonsense. Still, I enjoyed it overall.

  • @irishbatman2917
    @irishbatman2917 10 месяцев назад

    Thanks for the vid! I would say "The Deep" is Nick Cutters weakest story and "The Troop" is his best. I'd like to see what you think of "Little Heaven" and "The Breach" as well.

    • @abitofhorror
      @abitofhorror  10 месяцев назад +1

      Hey. Yeah, I actually have those on my list to read soon. For the most part, I've really enjoy Cutter's works, but I agree The Deep was pretty weak, though.

    I had to stop listening to this book for a second upon my first read because he mixed up centipedes and millipedes and I got mad because Luke is a vet, he should know the damn difference
    Other than that, interesting book!
    Great video

    • @abitofhorror
      @abitofhorror  Год назад +2

      You know what, I didn't even notice that. So true. Honestly, I'm not even sure what the purpose of making him a vet was, it didn't serve a story purpose at all, especially since they mentioned it so many times.

    • @abitofhorror
      @abitofhorror  8 месяцев назад

      I completely agree. The ending of this book was really a let down. It didn't fit with the rest of the book at all. As far as "The Summer I Died," no I haven't read it. I will be sure to check it out, though. I'm always looking for recommendations, thank you.

    this was a decent book that became a slog by having unecessary flashbacks and imaginary horror. sometimes it felt like there wasnt even an apocalypse happening on the surface because it mattered so little. the ending was so random too. it was alright but took a lot of willpower to get through

    As much as I wanted this book to be a banger because of what other people told me, it's really was a very boring not scary book period. I don recommend it at all

    • @abitofhorror
      @abitofhorror  7 месяцев назад

      I went into this book blind, so I didn't carry any preconceptions as I read it, but I can agree with you a little. I believe the premise of the book is alright, and I enjoyed the beginning, it's honestly the middle and the end where this book really falls apart for me. This book just feels like wasted potential.

  • @billystewart927

    I read Little Heaven and The Troop before this book and found this to be the weakest offering of the three. The ending was particularly weak, imo.

    • @abitofhorror
      @abitofhorror  6 месяцев назад

      I completely agree. I really thought there was strong potential for a creepy underwater story, it just fell apart. I haven't read Little Heaven yet, what are your thoughts on that one?

      @@abitofhorror it’s my favorite Nick Cutter book, so far. It has some similar themes as The Deep, but reminds me more of Blood Meridian. Great character development, some really good action sequences, less body horror.
