Publisher's summary
What is the secret of the Atomic Sea? Toxic. Mysterious. Lightning shoots up from it. Just to breathe the air above it causes mutation. Now, in a time of world war, one man will be pressed to discover the truth and unlock the secrets of the Atomic Sea, or the whole world will be plunged into nightmare. Join listeners around the globe in delving into the mysteries of this strange world.
A thousand years ago, the sea began to change, and the change spread.
Dr. Francis Avery is aboard a military whaling ship far out on the eerie Atomic Sea when a series of murders onboard propels him down a rabbit hole of danger and terror. For years he's tried to forget the deaths of his wife and child at the hands of the Empire of Octung, which has declared war on the world. He's fueled his anger into helping the defense against Octung and drowned his sorrows with whiskey. Now he becomes aware of an Octunggen spy on the ship. When his friend is murdered, he has no choice but to track the killer.
As if this wasn't enough, suddenly a mysterious woman is pulled from the toxic, lightning-wreathed depths of the Atomic Sea. Though weak, she's alive and unaltered by the waters - which should be impossible. Her name is Layanna, and only she can stop Octung.
As her doctor, Avery brings her back to health and in time grows to form an attachment to her...an attachment threatened when the spy who killed his friend is ordered to assassinate Layanna, too. Avery must save her and help her accomplish her mission, or the whole world will fall under Octung's shadow - and that of its enigmatic rulers.
That's just the beginning. With Layanna and the grizzled whaler Janx, Avery will embark on an epic, globe-spanning quest through a strange world to save it from Octung and unravel the secrets of the Atomic Sea. Get ready for high-flying action and excitement featuring zeppelins, romance, Lovecraftian horrors, and more twists and turns than you can shake a stick at.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

Rough Seas from beyond..
this series was excellent read I enjoy the story the characters the narration could have been better.I was enthralled by the idea of our oceans changed by otherworldly forces by it seemed the human drama initially dragged the story.Once certain characters were out of the way, the story improved greatly. Eventually the cast swells to a legendary size, with scoundrels worthy of their own books.The dark villains are revealed to be terrible and not always simple to understand.great books, hope to see more released!

Needs adleast 2 other narrators
This series needs adleast 2 other voice actors to cover it. The narrator here is good for many male voices but he is clearly stuggling with the female ones. They all sound nasally and too similar. Many of the male voices are also too similar. The story is interesting, if somewhat fast paced.

Fun books, cool premise, great narration.
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Yes, the Cthulhu old god theme is something most of my friends would like.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Avery, the main character. He is a deep character with a dark past. In a book that has so much story going on an a hum drum main character would work, it is cool that the main character has such bag to bring with him.
Which character – as performed by Ray Greenley – was your favorite?
Janx the side-kickish action hero whaler of the story. Mr. Greenley really brings this character to life.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
The book is really messed up at parts. Both the writer and the narrator do a great job at immersing you into the books environment, which if you like description in your fantasy horror your in for a treat.
Any additional comments?
I love the fact that this was in a collection. Definitely picking up book 3.

Interesting world, dark story
What made the experience of listening to The Atomic Sea: Omnibus of Volumes One and Two the most enjoyable?
The story was quick-moving and held my attention well. The story was captivating; I listened while driving and was at my destination before I realized it.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Avery was my favorite character because over the two books he grows from a humble, push-over doctor to an unlikely hero hell-bent on saving the world.
What about Ray Greenley’s performance did you like?
Greenley has a pleasant narrating voice and really keeps pace with the story well. He makes listening to this book a pleasant way to spend 13 hours.
Any additional comments?
This was a darker story than to which I would usually listen. I'd say it is similar to a World War II situation but where higher, inter-dimensional powers had been effecting the world for several millennia prior. The world has been bubbling with untapped energy (in some ways litterally) for that time, and this book takes place just as that energy begins to explode outward across the world.
Even though it was darker than my typical listen, it still moved fast and held my interest. I'd recommend it to someone who was a fan of other sci-fi war/battle-type books like Starship Troopers and such.
