Dark Sea Rising

Madness and murder engulf a floating oil platform.

A remote deep-sea oil drill blows apart, pushing the cash-strapped energy company that owns it toward bankruptcy. Madness and murder engulf the oil platform. A probe shows intelligent life on the deepest sea floor, evolved from long-lived cephalopods to whom the oil is sacred. Though peaceful, they will defend the oil at all costs. Alerted to the intentions of previously unknown humans the undersea intelligence is pushed toward a conflict that could destroy both civilizations.

Reviews:

"Coincidentally, the day before I finished this book National Public Radio broadcast an episode of Studio 360 during which they discussed Harlan Ellison, science fiction / fantasy and speculative fiction. Dark Sea Rising seemed to me to fall naturally into the area of speculative fiction." - Eric Spitzner

"A good science fiction writer leaves you considering the conceivability of the book’s premise. Barry Broad and Drew Mendelson don’t disappoint in this regard." - R. Ploude

"Dark Sea Rising drew me in and kept my attention from beginning to end." - R. J. DeGray

"This was a fantastic work of fiction that I truly enjoyed. I had some trouble with the Hawaiian names, but it was a fun read." - Professor T

"Just finish Dark Sea Rising, It was a great read!" - Don Delis
