Book Description

May 15, 1998
The sparkling waters around the tropical island of Malau attracts surfers, fisherman, and tourists from all around the world. Now they've attracted something else. Something big...and incredibly dangerous.

It begins with an earthquake, and the mysterious deaths of two young women. Local authorities are baffled by the tragedy, until a visiting American scientist realizes that the tremors have driven an unknown creature up from the ocean depths..and there may be more than one.

Soon the entire island will tremble beneath the thunderous tread of a gigantic mutated behemoth, the likes of which the world has never seen. No warning, no scientific theory can prepare mankind for the awesome reality of...Gargantua.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE GREATEST LITERARY ACHEIVEMENT OF THE 21ST CENTURY!!, June 5, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Gargantua (Mass Market Paperback)
The Fox network really dropped the ball on this fine piece of American Fiction. The character development was shockingly true to life...And Gargantua is one scary mother.

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW! And I mean wow!, December 5, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Gargantua (Mass Market Paperback)
I have read many adaptations of movies and have always found that they manage to flesh out what is missing, but this book does more than that, this book makes you wish they had mad the movie based on the work rather than the other way around. Andreassi has a very easy writing style and paces his story with the right amount of drama, humor and pathos. A must have this holiday season if you missed it before! Forget the movie! Read a book!
