This Gilded Abyss: Underwater Horror, Ancient Gods, and Steampunk Survival
Today I’m reviewing This Gilded Abyss by Rebecca Thorne—a wild blend of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea vibes and 28 Days Later-style survival horror, all set deep beneath the ocean.Trapped in a submersible with danger closing in, this story combines claustrophobic tension, ancient gods and Titans, and a strong dose of steampunk atmosphere. It’s fast-paced, eerie, and packed with that “something is very wrong down here” energy.🎧 Tune in for my spoiler-free thoughts on what worked, how the horror elements land, and why this underwater fantasy stands out.
