The Dark Frontier: Unlocking the Secrets of the Deep Sea by Jeffrey MarlowMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book is full of scientific discoveries and information about the deep ocean. It also is a bit of an autobiography for the author, but mostly not. Several different people and aspects are discussed throughout the book. This is very cursory and not much of a review...
The last portion gets a bit too much in the weeds about treaty negotiations to protect the ocean floor. Unfortunately, too often money influences when instead an ecosystem should be looked at, or science.
I made a mistake in listening to this book via audio. The narrator was not a good fit for the book.
Normally I don't let a narration influnce how I feel about a book, but this one is long, and I became annoyed. I really should have switched to print. Perhaps one day I will return and read a print version, but I don't expect that will happen anytime soon (if at all).
