Hungry as the Sea is an enthralling story of revenge, adventure and romance from best-selling author Wilbur Smith.

'Nick went head down, finning desperately to catch the swirling body which tumbled like a leaf in high wind. He had a fleeting glimpse of Baker's face, contorted with terror and lack of breath, the glass visor of his helmet already swamping with icy water as the pressure spurted through the non-return valve. The Chief's headset microphone squealed once and then went dead as the water shorted it out.'

Robbed of his wife and ousted from his huge shipping empire, Nick Berg is hell-bent on vengeance. It is the sea which gives him his opportunity. When his arch-rival's luxury liner is trapped in the tempestuous Antarctic, Nick stakes all to pit his powerful salvage tug, the Warlock, in a desperate race against time and the elements....

A very enjoyable story with a strong protagonist. The story gets a little preachy about saving the oceans but it is well mingled with the narrative and characters. As others have pointed out the narrator in the Audible version wasn't the best for this type story, but is tolerable. If I had a real complaint its the lack of chapters in the Audible version. There is no break from the end of one chapter from the other, luckily I had read this on kindle long ago so I kind of knew what was going on, I can imagine first time listeners not realizing when one scene ended and getting confused at what seems like weird time skips and character teleportation.
