BOOK REVIEW Reviewed by Viga Boland for Readers' Favorite How appropriate that just the day after I finished reading Fatal Depth by Timothy S. Johnston, CNN reported that because of rapid glacial melt, It’s becoming increasingly clear that sea-level rise is going to be a bigger and bigger problem as we move through the 21st century. This alarming fact about climate warming is the concept behind Fatal Depth and Johnston’s previous two books. In these superbly written novels,... Johnston takes readers into the worldwide undersea colonies man has developed because, bit by bit, living on land as we currently do is no longer possible. https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/fatal-depth https://www.fitzhenry.ca/Detail/1554555574 See more
