Beasts of the Deep: Sea Creatures and Popular Culture offers its readers an in-depth and interdisciplinary engagement with the sea and its monstrous inhabitants; through critical readings of folklore, weird fiction, film, music, radio and digital games. Within the text there are a multitude of convergent critical perspectives used to engage and explore fictional and real monsters of the sea in media and folklore. The collection features chapters from a variety of academic perspectives; post- modernism, psychoanalysis, industrial-organisational analysis, fandom studies, sociology and philosophy are featured. Under examination are a wide range of narratives and media forms that represent, reimagine and create the Kraken, mermaids, giant sharks, sea draugrs and even the weird creatures of H.P. Lovecraft. Beasts of the Deep offers an expansive study of our sea-born fears and anxieties, that are crystallised in a variety of monstrous forms. Repeatedly the chapters in the collection encounter the contemporary relevance of our fears of the sea and its inhabitants – through the dehumanising media depictions of refugees in the Mediterranean to the encroaching ecological disasters of global warming, pollution and the threat of mass marine extinction.

“The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” (Rev 19:10) and a prophetic perspective promotes purpose. Yet in a world swiftly growing callous, true purpose and meaning are fading. Many of Jesus’ disciples today have “lost their first love,” which is Jesus himself (Rev 2:4). And too many souls overall miss the wonder, inspiration, and comfort gained by those who would endeavor toward fuller comprehension of the book of Revelation: “Blessed are they who read and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near” (Rev 1:3). Neglect of the Holy Spirit, slothfulness, fear, and the ongoing confusion generated by competing interpretations and bad theology are the primary obstacles between an individual and the liberation to be had by reading the last book of the Bible. We must not forget that while the apostle John wrote the book of Revelation, its author is Jesus Christ, and he is not an author of confusion but of peace (1 Cor 14:33). This commentary presents a practical, discipleship-based perspective toward following Jesus into the very heart of his Revelation. So as the end of this clamorous age approaches, may we truly hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches!

The year is 2069. Plagues have destroyed major food sources, and a virus has infected the vast majority of earth's inhabitants. The virus can be overcome, but only through complete blood transfusion. This is why blood has become the new currency: it is banked, traded, and speculated in. But only by the few who are wealthy enough to have a clean source. The moon is now a penal colony, a sexual pleasure dome, and home to the most important blood bank around. This bank is watched over by one massive computer, and that computer's security systems were devised by one man: Dallas. Playing by the system's rules, Dallas has become wealthy. But then his daughter is struck down by a blood disease requiring repeated transfusions. Now he is the security risk, and the perfect player has become a target.
