White Shark is an EXCELLENT book! I like to read shark attack books, but this is different. There is much more to this book then just a shark eating people. Great, fast paced story and characters that you really care about. This monster is CRAZY, I've never read about anything like it!

This was a great summer read. I found myself unable to put it down and actually more enjoyable than "Jaws". If you love sharks, you'll love this book.

A Nazi scientest's late war experiment, a creature half man half machine slumbering on the ocean floor for over 50 years...this is a great page turning book! Set off the coast of Connecticut, the creature is released to scare the locals to death. A great blend of sea, science, and history this book spins a suspense-filled novel that hits you on a primal level, makes your heart pound, and leaves your blood running cold. Excellent read!!!

This is not a retelling of Jaws. It is actually more sci-fi than other of his books, and was a fun read.

Quick summer read. Action filled but that doesn't salvage the plot. Nazi developed shark/human hybrid. Not very much character developement.

Not the usual Bencheley type reading and he mixes a little science fiction into the story line - which I didn't think he did with too much credibility
