    About this audiobook

    The ships of the world are under attack, attacks so sudden and vicious that many ships are lost without a single distress call. Enter the Event Group, the most secret organisation in US history. Armed with proof that history is repeating itself, the Group finds themselves in the grasp of an insane genius straight out of the pages of Jules Verne.

    David L. Golemon

    David L. Golemon is the author of the Event Group Thrillers, including Event, Ancients, Leviathan and Primeval. Legend, the second book in the series, was nominated for a RITA award for paranormal fiction. Golemon learned an early love of reading from his father, who told him that the written word, unlike other forms, allows readers to use their own minds, the greatest special effects machines of all—an idea Golemon still believes. The only thing he loves more than writing is research, especially historical research, and he sees the subtext of his Event novels as being that understanding history allows us to create a better future. Golemon grew up in Chino, California, and now makes his home in New York.

    • 4/5
      Not the best but still a good read.
    • 4/5
      I really enjoyed this book. Golemon gives us a fast-paced thriller that picks up just 6 weeks after the last book ended. The events in the previous book are not forgotten or fixed do and impact this story. If you have been enjoying the Event Group books you won't be disappointed. If you have never read any of Golemon's books, Check out [The Event].Well written and fast paced.
    • 5/5
      Spectacular Undersea Suspense ThrillerDavid Golemon comes back stronger than ever in this fourth fabulous installment of The Event Group stories. When you open Leviathan, you will find yourself in the immediate spot where the author left us off in The Ancients. The time is just a few weeks later after that roller coaster ride in Atlantis that left us minus one key player and our favorite action hero. Leviathan starts off with an intriguing prologue of a past story in the year 1802, that gives us the flavor of The Count of Monte Cristo and offers the reader something a bit different in style to Golemons’ norm. This Event Group novel is written a bit differently than the previous three books in that although we maintain the high tech military black ops action scenes, with all Golemon’s favorite big boy toys, the action is more realistic and the writing a bit more polished and literary to create one hell of a darn good novel. Books one and two had us diving for cover with some pretty scary monsters that had us all terrified yet craving for more. This episode gives us creatures as well, sentient and magical one moment, mischievous and murderous the next as they plot revenge against mankind.Leviathan’s main theme is a mysterious anomaly found in the ocean’s depths. Golemon turns this story into a clever and creative twist on Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. A Swedish family of genius level scientists have been creating monstrous submarines with technology far advanced than our current world has the capacity to create. The current Captain of the Leviathan is a female descendant of the original inventor and is now cruising the worlds’ seas hell-bent on warning the nations of earth that if they do not clean up their act, and stop global oil spillage and polluting the oceans, she will wreak havoc detonating multiple missiles in many world sea ports. Guilty parties are to immediately cease their ships from leaving their harbors with dangerous toxic wastes currently harming and killing many species of sea life, including her own. The reader is kept on pins and needles throughout this fantastical nautical yarn and is left right up to the finale still questioning who and what this beautiful yet volatile Captain Nemo-like mistress of the sea is. The wonders of the mechanics and technology of this super sub are very cool entertainment ingredients, and the story packs in the usual humor, adventure, and action that the Event Group series usually provides. A bit of Tom Clancy, a dash of James Rollins, sprinkled with Alexander Dumas and my beloved Jules Verne, and a mysterious organism akin to what made all Stargate fans cringe, all stir up a rip-roaring page turning thriller that I believe is one of the best of the series yet. Golemon has not let us down and continues to show us that his talent is here for the long haul as each book gets better and better. Even a little tender sweet romance graces Leviathan showing us the author has a soft spot along with his love of high tech weaponry, military vehicles and futuristic sci-fi gadgetry. Two thumbs up, this was fantastic from start to finish.
