Synopsis
The world’s oceans are filled with an array of venomous and toxic marine critters, not to mention a whole host of apex carnivores. Join ace divers and photographers Nick and Caroline Robertson-Brown as they tour the world in search of the 50 deadliest sea creatures. Animals covered come from all around the globe and include jellyfish, sea snakes, blue-ringed octopuses, lionfish, pufferfish, stingrays, cone shells, leopard seals, orcas, crocodiles and, of course, a whole range of sharks. And there’s an intriguing twist in deciding just which one is the most deadly!
Each entry includes stunning images by the photographers, together with a concise and captivating description of its deadly capabilities, along with facts such as where it can be found, making this the perfect book for everyone from divers and armchair naturalists to schoolchildren with a morbid fascination for the world’s most dangerous creatures.

Review
"This large-format photographic tome opens a window on an array of fascinating marine creatures and their adaptations to life at sea..." Matt Doggett, Marine Biologist, BBC Wildlife Magazine February 2017. "...this is one fine-looking book of underwater life, and the splendid matt-black cover with its laminated jellyfish does it proud...As it is, GBP1.50 per 100g turns out to be pretty good value, especially if what you're seeking is an impressive looking gift and a particularly nice touch is the final chapter touching on the deadliest predator of all (you have one guess) and input from the great Dr Sylvia Earle on the perils of plastic waste" Diver Magazine April 2017
