This has been a fun read! For people who love anything marine, this is definitely a good choice. I didn't love "20.000 leagues under the sea", but I liked how it was handled in this book, as well as the sci-fi elements. I don't read a lot of sci-fi, but I feel like a lot of the time it's about space related innovation. Meanwhile the oceans of our planet offer a lot of mystery as well, so I think it's cool that this is what this book deals with. 

Oh, little thing: Do not read the foreword or introduction if you want to avoid a minor spoiler - it's not thaaaaat big of a deal, but I would've liked to discover that fact while reading instead of in the beginning of the book while reading things that by their name are supposed to be read before starting the story -.-
