Such a wonderful book. The movie didn't do it justice.
It's one of my favourite books that crafts a survival tale in an unrealistic scenario into something insanely realistic. It's no doubt that it's hard to convince a reader to fear a being we cannot see, and this book easily accomplishes it. It adds something special by filling the book with human perspective, and showing us how different characters might interact with an unknown entity. The author lets every character shine regardless of their personality.
At the end of the day, do you fear a creature that drives you insane or do you fear the insane for what they might do to you?
