SCIENCE Is There Life in the Dead Sea? What Science Has Found
No fish. No seaweed. Yet under certain conditions, halophilic archaea and the microalga Dunaliella emerge in concentrations visible from the shore as a reddish bloom, one of Earth's most extreme living systems.

It`s so very easy to just wack on a "Lovecraftian" label to any deep sea horror, you can`t really find yourself set upon a boat without the thought of Cthulhu`s giant slimey head popping out of the water. But I definitely think Tim Curran`s mammoth of a read "Dead Sea" deserves that label and very more.
Interdimensional horror? Check
Giant monsters with unknown origin? Check
Characters so thirsty that I constantly needed a sip of water? Lots of checks.
It was a great book, all 478 pages of it.
But I will give a warning now, there is one character so unlikable, so homophobic that I wanted to reach into the pages myself and...
But other than that, a fantastic read. 4 out of 5 stars

Nature’s architecture is wild, unpredictable, and devastatingly beautiful. Even while hovering over this massive sinkhole near Ein Gedi, you truly feel the raw, shifting power of the Dead Sea region. The contrast between the turquoise-blue saltwater the raw earth with its salt crust is absolutely surreal. Though beautiful, sinkholes are a stark reminder of environmental changes and the receding shoreline of the Dead Sea. #DeadSea #EinGedi #IsraelTravel #Sinkhole #NatureIsAmazing #DesertVibes #TravelPhotography #MiddleEastTravel #ExploreIsrael #EarthCapture
