Breakthrough

Starts Slow and Easy. Then WOW. The build in this book starts as a low simmer. You meet up with a man getting out of the ocean onto his boat in the Caymans. You meet a research team in Antarctica. You meet another research team trying to learn how to talk to dolphins in Miami. ... And then all of this begins coming together. When it does... sci-fi done with some things that seem reminiscent of things, and other things I've never seen. It was a great combination and produced a great story.
