Publisher's Summary
What secrets lurk in the depths of Jupiter’s oceans?
In Ben Bova’s novel Jupiter, physicist Grant Archer led an expedition into Jupiter’s planet-wide ocean, attempting to study the unusual and massive creatures that call the planet their home. Unprepared for the hostile environment and crushing pressures, Grant’s team faced certain death as their ship malfunctioned and slowly sank to the planet’s depths. However, one of Jupiter’s native creatures—a city-sized leviathan—saved the doomed ship. This creature’s act convinced Grant that they were intelligent, but he lacked scientific proof. Now, several years later, Grant prepares a new expedition to prove it once and for all. The new team faces dangers from both the hostile environment and from humans who will do anything to make sure the mission is a failure—even if it means murdering the entire crew.

interesting theme poorly written too many V actors
Firstly what on earth was going on with the narrators, the two main ones were good, easy to listen to and seemed to have similar understandings of the characters/story. the others irritating and unnecessary and at points properly horrible I had to take my headphones off at several points. one of the ladies had a horribly sharp, tinny, whiney voice that gave me a headache
from the beginning I should have known, the character introductions were sloppy, the writing was bland and uninspired, character development was non-existent, the antagonist was just properly stupid with a ridiculously uninspired motive which didn't even make sense. agh i mean to write a proper review for it but I'm so frustrated I'm gonna go have a drink.
I was still waiting for the book to get interesting when it ended, I felt like maybe it will get interesting soon, its just around the corner... but it never did there was no great insight to be gained from this, I'll return the book if possible.
Seriously such a poor effort should have just stuck with the two narrators or one, the lead female voice actor was pretty damn good.
