Now a CW Original Series
The Der Spiegel number #1 blockbuster bestseller about an intelligent life force that takes over the oceans and exacts revenge on mankind!
Whales begin sinking ships. Toxic eyeless crabs poison Long Island's water supply. Around the world, countries are beginning to feel the effects of the ocean's revenge. In this riveting novel, full of twists, turns, and cliffhangers, a team of scientists discovers a strange, intelligent life force called the Yrr that takes form in marine animals in order to wreak havoc on man for his abuses. The Day After Tomorrow meets The Abyss in his gripping, scientifically realist, utterly imaginative thriller. With the compellingly creepy and vivid skill of this author to evoke story, character, and place, Frank Schatzing's book are certain to find a home with fans of Michael Crichton.
