MEG: Nightstalkers
MEG: Nightstalkers | Steve Alten
17 posts | 12 read | 1 reading | 7 to read
In this fifth installment of the New York Times bestselling MEG series, Nighstalkers picks up where MEG: Hell's Aquarium left off. Bela and Lizzy, the dominant Megalodon siblings from Angel's brood, have escaped the Tanaka Institute to roam the Salish Sea in British Columbia. While Jonas Taylor and his friend Mac attempt to either recapture or kill the "sisters," Jonas's son, David, embarks on his own adventure, motivated by revenge. Having witnessed his girlfriend's gruesome death, David has joined a Dubai Prince's ocean expedition, tracking the 120-foot, hundred-ton Liopleurodon that escaped from the Panthalassa Sea. Haunted by night terrors, David repeatedly risks his life to lure the Lio and other prehistoric sea creatures into the fleet's nets, while battling his own suicidal demons. Steve Alten weaves these storylines together in a page-turning thriller that culminates in a final showdown between the most dangerous predators ever to inhabit the planet. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Mehso-so

Aaaaalright, I adored the Meg series until Vostok. I hated that book. It takes place between this book and the one before. While Nightstalkers IS better, the references to Vostok killed it.
I am disappoint.

This is a review for Meg:Generations but it‘s not in the database. It was a wonderful book. Exactly what I expect from Alten, full of marine biology goodness and eye rolling scenes! I love it!! And then the ending. I literally screamed WHAT THE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING!??!? I‘m going to need the next book (please be one!!) real soon!!

TEArificbooks I think there is a crossover with his Loch series. 5y
Seekingtardis @mdm139 there is. It‘s in the Night Stalkers book. 5y
TEArificbooks I just finished nightstalker and when I look up the series in order on good reads they also list Vostok which is loch 2 as part of the Meg series. 5y

Seekingtardis @mdm139 I‘ve read that series too, they explain everything in Nightstalkers so you don‘t need to read the Loch series unless you want to. But be forewarned the second book is a dumpster fire compared to the first one! 5y
TEArificbooks Thanks for the heads up. I thought the whole time travel aspect of nightstalker was unnecessary. There is enough sci fi in the books, giant ocean dinosaurs and hi tech subs is plenty. It almost felt like he was desperate to make it more interesting or took someone‘s bad advise and added the time travel. It was off putting for me. I wasn‘t going to read generations but I will now since you liked it. 5y
Seekingtardis @mdm139 if you read The Loch, don‘t read book two because as bad as that bit in Nightstalkers was it is 80 X‘s worse!! Generations is good!! It‘s a bit jumpy and I feel some of it should have been cut or at least cut into two books but all in all a good monster eating people book lol (edited) 5y

1. My heavily frosted back yard.
2. Mostly. We are an hour from anywhere, but I do love the countryside.
3. MEG: Nightsalkers had so many different kinds of prehistoric sea creatures to challenge the Megs. It was a fun read.
4. In the evening.
5. We tried a new BBQ place while shopping this evening.

Another MEG audio book down, and only one more to go. I really enjoyed this installment in the MEG series. More creatures, more danger, old guys in mini subs fighting prehistoric sperm whales with lasers, alternate realities, and so much more! This book had it all. I'm ready for the next one.

3.5* Okay, this is not my favorite of the series. I got a headache from rolling my eyes back into my head. The writing seems a bit rushed and...messy and the general handliu of characters we know and enjoy seemed sloppy. That said, it's still really enjoyable. I flew through it. There were some tears and some anger even. It's a must read for anyone who has enjoyed the rest of the series.

@thegirlwiththelibrarybag I KNEW my self imposed hiatus from sharks would not last long. I just bought Primal Waters. Now I only need Nightstalkers to have all the Meg and Loch books; and I think #bookoutlet has it in stock. Persephone is not amused. #catsoflitsy

LauraJ I‘m seriously tempted by the MEG books, but already have all this Stephen King stuff to read. 6y

This is my least favorite of the series so far.... but it‘s still plenty of #shark fun... I just wish the subplot connecting this to Vostok wasn‘t part of it... but hopefully the next one is better!!

It‘s a 4/5 🐙🐙🐙🐙
I loved this book but I have to give it a 4/5 because of a couple of repeating tropes, not sharks eating people, I expect that in a shark book. However the same thing happens A few too many times. However these are not main story points, it‘s still about Sea critters and Science. So I loved it! Excited for #6 to come out later this year and starting The Loch that has the back story of another Character in this series.

Tons of maps, had trouble picking just one! Maybe not as beautiful as maps in a lot of other books, but helpful to understand the places spoken about in the book! #mapsinbooks #somethingforsept #sharkbooks #septphotochallenge @RealLifeReading

ReadingOver50 OMG this book sounds so interesting. Have you read the whole series? 8y
Pamtherunner @ReadingOver50 it's one of my favorite series! The first and fourth books are my favorites. I got to meet Steve Alten a few months ago, which was awesome because I've been interested in these books basically since they came out (1997) 8y

This book picks up where the fourth leaves off, which is different than the rest of the series as each book typically has years between them. I love "the sisters," belle and lizzy. This was supposed to be the last book but there will be another! Can't wait until the original in the series is a movie
