The only thing I remembered about the book though, is that I couldn’t keep it down in spite of being severely jet lagged and in dire need of some shut eye. Let me begin my review by saying that I have read Sphere before – around a decade ago. But how do you fight for your sanity and your life against an unknown enemy who may know no mercy? With no way out of the habitat that sits at the bottom of the Pacific ocean, the team of Navy officers and scientists are forced to fight against the growing terrors even as their lives are left at the mercy of the one who is communicating with them. And as the messages grow angrier and more hostile, the dangers become more real. Whoever or whatever is transmitting the messages is getting angrier… and more powerful. Cut off from the surface, the team is forced to face the only plausible explanation – the messages have something to do with the sphere. Their mission is one that seems incredible – investigate the spaceship that sits at the bottom of the ocean, a spaceship that is at least three hundred years old. But Captain Harold Barnes, the project commander and USN officer in charge of the operation knows more than he’s telling.Īnd yet, when the team finds a seemingly alien spherical object with nothing but some indentations along one side of its smooth surface, even Captain Barnes doesn’t have the answer that they all want – what is the sphere and where did it come from? Faced with the sphere that cannot be opened, the project comes to a near standstill… until something begins communicating with the team through their computer screen.
