Really shines in a re-read when you have some context for why characters make certain decisions.

I liked a lot about this book. Some of the Norse language and bits in here made things a little hard to follow, but I was engaged throughout.

Terrifying 😂 Many stories of things happening to people (punctures in biohazard suits, containment issues) in the 80s and 90s that I’m surprised we didn’t have an Ebola epidemic in the United States.
This also confirmed my decision to not partake in any cave activities in my life.
The book was a bit dry at times but was written in a way that wasn’t overly technical which I appreciated.
