Why read it?
1 author picked Leviathan as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book also strives to capture the harsh working conditions and rugged individuals who must endure such endeavors, as well as the greed that often can push those in management positions to take risks for profit that might put others in danger. While this book paints with a broad brush, it does very well at telling a story about blue collar heroes, greedy villains, and the price of hubris in the form of a hungry beast.
From Sean-Michael's list on blue collar sci-fi and horror.
