Product Description

Diving deep beneath the icy waters of a remote Alaska fjord, a technical scuba diver explores the crumbling, silt-laden interior of a sunken passenger liner. The tantalizing promise of finding collectible artifacts may be scant reward for the dangers that await him inside the decaying, forgotten steamship. (6 pages—1200 words; short fiction)

About the Author

Acclaimed shipwreck explorer, technical diver and historian Steve Lloyd is best known for his nonfiction accounts of nearly a dozen Alaska shipwrecks, and for locating and documenting the two oldest shipwrecks ever found in Alaska waters: The Russian trading ship "Kad’yak" (1860) and the American troop transport bark "Torrent" (1868). Lloyd’s shipwreck articles have appeared in magazines and historical journals, and he is the author of the nonfiction book "Farallon": Shipwreck and Survival on the Alaska Shore (WSU Press, 2000). He continues to research and seek lost shipwrecks throughout Alaska.

5.0 out of 5 stars Suspenseful Account of Exploring a Sunken Steamship Dining Room, January 3, 2012
This review is from: Darkness Absolute: A Wreck Diving Story (Kindle Edition)
I love stories about shipwrecks, and truly wish I possessed the fortitude to dive into the inky blackness to explore them. But, alas! I must rely on those who have the training and the courage to slip far beneath the surface and bring their shipwreck diving stories back to us. Steve Lloyd delivers a masterful account of the experience of entering into the darkness. I must admit I felt a shudder when I read his words. What would it be like to be alone in that sunken dining room? Relying on equipment alone to sustain and guide you? The ghosts of waiters and diners to accompany you as you glide through the fixtures? If you like diving and shipwreck stories, you'll love this one. Very well written and suspenseful. I highly recommend it.
