The Maracot Deep


Read by Thomas A. Copeland

(4.3 stars; 23 reviews)

Professor Maracot, accompanied by two American associates, conducts an exploration of the Atlantic Ocean floor, beginning in a diving bell of his invention. The results exceed the underwater thrills we may recall from Sea Hunt and Jacques Cousteau. Maracot, a contrastive successor to Professor Challenger, whom Edgar Rice Burrows had borrowed from Doyle, leads his colleagues into unanticipated adventures that rival those of Burrows's Barsoom novels. These climax with a supernatural contest of wills.

Reviews


(5 stars)

It bears some of Doyle’s attributes. I liked it although SiFi is not appealing to me. If not for the author I wouldn’t have listened. I really enjoyed it though. Doyle must have had to do much research to write it. I recommend it.

Interesting Doyle piece


(5 stars)

It was a very different Doyle piece but fun. Only flaw is the cover art is for a different book. Oops.


(3 stars)

The narrator did a fantastic job for a story writer that had lost all attachments to sanity
