The world of Tantalus Depths is all encompassing. I was transfixed from the first moments on the ship through the journey the crew takes exploring the planet. The story captured my imagination, driving me to constantly guess at the next complication the crew might face, and question the big picture, often wondering aloud what would come next. I instantly connected to Mary feeling a deep kinship I only feel with the most profoundly crafted characters. Evan Graham delivers an engaging story told through beautiful prose, the absolute definition of great literature.
