A poor interpretation of a magnificently complex character
Revisado: 05-05-23
I purchased this in earnest; desiring a new interpretation of a beloved story. Sadly, this novella suffers from the same lack of understanding and limitations that many younger/edgelord authors possess. I’m nearly a three decade veteran of the POTO phandom in all its myriad incarnations, and this book was sadly one of the most disappointing.
Erik’s arbitrary cruelties are out of place and out of character, particularly when accounting for the ALW musical’s canon as basis. There are moments that one has hope for the narrative, but the author frequently subverts those or entirely derails m by interjecting random bouts of in opportune and frankly out of character violence and inappropriateness.
If you have the credit to spare and there’s nothing else to tempt you on your wishlist, by all means, spend a credit for this audiobook.

Loch Ness holds secrets, ancient and deadly. Does a monster inhabit its depths, or is it just myth? Why, after thousands of reported sightings and dozens of expeditions, is there still no hard evidence? Marine biologist Zachary Wallace knows, but the shock of his near-drowning as a child on Loch Ness have buried all memories of the incident. Now, a near-death experience suffered while on expedition in the Sargasso Sea has caused these long-forgotten memories to resurface.

I wanted to like this
Revisado: 03-20-22
I rarely feel compelled to write reviews, but this book frustrated me so badly I felt I had to. I was excited for a cool, marine biologist’s perspective, fantasy story about Loch Ness and the possibility of a creature living within, but Alten’s main character is so wholly self centered, navel gazy, misogynistic, and unlikable that I don’t think I can finish it. If Zachary Wallace (of COURSE he’s the descendant of William Wallace) could suck himself off, he would. I’m a history fan, love documentaries, and enjoy reading history. What I don’t love is longwinded, droning diatribes of background history shoved in at random places that go on for LITERALLY 25 minutes. At this point I don’t even care about Wallace’s familial trauma because he’s such an unlikeable, unpleasant douchebag.
Spend your money or credit on literally anything else.
