類型：驚悚、懸疑、奇幻
不知為何，想到道格，想到莎曼珊，我的腦袋就自動浮出了Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)這首歌，還是Placebo的版。
初時看到這部小說時，還未換封面，我是抱著閱讀中國古典志怪類故事的心情點進去的。想不到，竟是由航海員日誌記錄大海怪為序曲。這下不但出乎意料，更直接將我的心抓住往下拉。
道格蒐集的化石，究竟有什麼詭異的秘密？不但牽扯到阿茲特克文明，更牽涉到北歐傳說的海怪－－克拉肯，甚至是克蘇魯？
作者序章就如電影般，寥寥數筆就引得人非看不可。作品充滿濃厚翻譯文學風格，推薦給喜好歐美奇幻、驚悚小說的讀者試試。
給喜歡挖寶的各位，這裡可以翻到作者本人的創作理念喔，若有興趣，還有更多寶物你來挖掘。
另，附上Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God)的歌詞，不知，會不會有人跟一樣想到它呢？
It doesn't hurt me
Do you want to feel how it feels? Do you want to know, know that it doesn't hurt me?Do you want to hear about the deal that I'm making?
You
It's you and me
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places Be running up that road Be running up that hill Be running up that building See, if I only could, oh
You don't want to hurt me
But see how deep the bullet lies Unaware I'm tearing you asunder Oh, there is thunder in our hearts
Is there so much hate for the ones we love?
Tell me, we both matter, don't we?
You
It's you and me It's you and me, won't be unhappy
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places Be running up that road Be running up that hill Be running up that building See, if I only could, oh
You
It's you and me It's you and me, won't be unhappy
Oh, come on, baby
Oh, come on, darling Let me steal this moment from you now
Oh, come on, angel
Come on, come on, darling Let's exchange the experience, oh, uh
And if I only could
I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places I'd be running up that road Be running up that hill With no problems
See, if I only could
I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places I'd be running up that road Be running up that hill With no problems
See, if I only could
I'd make a deal with God And I'd get him to swap our places I'd be running up that road Be running up that hill With no problems
See, if I only could
Be running up that hill With no problems
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
(If I only could, be running up that hill)
