Mediocre writing and poor resolution

A great deal of amateur writing goes on in this bundle. Filled with adverbs, over-abundant similes and too much beat me over the head telling. Many endings simply don't make sense as well.
There are many stories, in this and in following bundles, where a first person narrator tells the story only to die at the end... then how are they relating the tale? Mind, they're not ghosts or anything... they just get eaten by the monster or whatever. This is such a basic blunder it's laughable.
I'm sorry, but Scare Street needs to do much better than this.

Interesting... but some characters were annoyingly

A very interesting premise. What bothered me though was that the team, especially with Nora, spent more time arguing and quipping than actually figuring things out. and all Nora's function seemed to be was to be a b--ch. Whenever certain character would put forth a proposition - mind you, she asked them to be on the team - she'd snipe at them. it simply went beyond credibility that she never gave anyone the respect to hear them out. Maybe a bit too much boys bad girls good stuff, too.
The kraken was interesting - wish we could've actually focused on that more.

Too much plot-convenient stupidity - a bit lazy

I red the first two books and they were pretty good. I think Mr. Beck does a good job with his science, for the most part. However, I have to say that in this one, there are just too many dumb things that are obvious plot devices.

Spoilers: A woman getting eaten and her weapon just happens to hit the ship instead of what she's pointing at... 4 Russians sneak up on a shipload of armed people and nobody notices... no matter how many weapons on board, they never fire them at the monster nor is it ever in their sights - in spite of the laser being able to penetrate seawater. And really? The Russian fisheren / pirates could simply have "asked" for help? WTF? That and how every winch or rope or line or haul up or any action designed to pull people from the water takes hours to complete while the shark just takes its sweet old time?

And one last thing... and I noticed this in previous books, too... how its fortunate that we have minor characters to get killed instead of our heroes most of the time. I will say that Mr. Beck does break that trope occasionally to his credit.

Again, a talented author who weaves a good tale... but this one sort of fell short for me.

What an exciting ride. I did enjoy the fact that Senor Cook broke Bull Shark into 2 series. It makes each book a little smaller and a faster read. Once more, Dave Alexander does a great job and I can't wait for the next installment.

These just keep getting better and better. I also look forward to the Decker's Raiders - hope it comes out soon! A gripping story and narration that keeps you glued.

Was great to see Jarvis using his new big sailing ship. Really cool how this series goes to so many interesting and real-life places. This time we got to go to the Caribbean by sail, and high-seas adventure, international intrigue and steamy romance ensues! Highly recommend.

Wow, this one picks up where the last book left off and gets even bigger! You could almost make two books out of this one. What's really cool is that overlaying all the subbmarine, airplane and Marine combat action are compelling stories of characters who are as real as the historical figures who actually fought this war. It really brings the story to life and makes it realistically gritty and compelling.

Gotta love when the gang gets together. When the wit of Dan, Red and Skip come together... nothing can stop them... not even logic! Odd how books 8-13 haven't been released on audio yet - but hope they will soon!

I love stories with Mel Gorman. he's always such a great addition and quite a bad-ass in his guilless way. I've read all of Rodney's books, and i hope more are coming to audio. The recurring characters of Officer mel and his parents are great.
