Snow Shark 2: Terror in Space
As pieces of the dead are recovered from the ashes of White Cap Lodge, Snow Shark is still on the loose. Hunted by a contingent of wary soldiers, General Coy Hall's patience is thinning with each minute he waits for word of the shark's discovery to arrive. Once located, the General leads the men in for the capture. Chaos soon breaks out, blood rushes down the slopes, and soldiers die as they are forced to apprehend the shark by a General gone mad.
250 years later. Jacob Tresler, the architect behind a program designing a new shark prototype, one that retains all the attributes of Ben Heywood's original production, is returning from earth with the infamous Snow Shark in his possession. Commander Dexter Mullin of the Star Legion is tasked with escorting Tresler and his demon to the planet Talos, but are disrupted by an awful event that sets in motion a bloody streak of violence that will test Mullin's fighters to their limits.
And back at Tresler's research station on Talos, something terrible has butchered the crew and is still on the loose. SNOW SHARK Terror in Space

Thid one is completely outrageous, but that's what I love about the Snow Shark novels and the author's style.
This particular one brought me enjoyment.
I'm looking forward to reading more from my new go-to author!

It’s common knowledge that all great horror icons make their way to space at some point. All the greats…Critters, Jason Voorhees, Leprechaun, Killer Klowns (I know they came from space.). Like its just the next reasonable step in a memorable franchise. Now that I think of it, why haven’t Chucky or Freddy gone to that level yet? Oh well, there’s still time. Needless to say, when I saw Brian Berry’s ambitions with the sequel to the absolute frantic bloodbath that was the original Snow Shark, I was 'in like Flint.' And I got exactly what I expected. It reminded me of Doom and Project Metalbeast a bit, with a splash of Jason X, but just with walking, cyborg sharks. And Brian Berry did something that most authors fail to do with futuristic books, in that he utilized some upgraded weaponry. Too many times I’ve read of characters flying around in spaceships or living in the year 2500 or whatever, but still using modern age guns. So kudos to the author for that. The premise is fantastic and there are no memorable characters to speak of. They all just sort of exist as live bait for the sharks. But it didn’t matter. It all worked like a fine-tuned symphony orchestra. All the battling, chasing, violence, gore, and unique environments just made my toes wiggle in delight. I’ll repeat myself once again…walking, cyborg sharks in space. That’s all that matters here.

What do sharks, snow, space, monkeys and cybernetic technology have in common?
Wait ... you said nothing? On the contrary! Brian Berry's book 2 of Snow Shark has all of this and so much more! it is chum for shark lovers. Dive deep into the abyss of blood, gore, body parts and sharks that thrive in snow and space! Say whaaaatt? Oh yes. Jaws ain't got nothing against Snow Shark. This book has a treasure trove of colorful victims ... err ... characters, a veritable feeding frenzy of crazy, out of this world entertainment!
It is so much fun. It is absurd in all the right ways!

With Snow Shark 2, Brian Berry launches into space horror, taking his weaponized terror shark into the deep, dark cold of the cosmos. There's a sense of fun underpinning the novel, but Berry's talent for weaving atmosphere, verisimilitude, and narrative ensures that the blood-soaked tale keeps a straight face and sure voice.
The story begins where Snow Shark 1 left off, with General Coy Hall ruminating over the project and its ramifications. His satisfaction is short lived. We'll leave it there. The novel then jumps centuries ahead of 1988, picking up in celestial future where experiments with the shark weapon continue. Star Legion has its hands full with the shark, and with General Hall. How's he back after hundreds of years? That's the best part of the novel, so you'll have to read to find out.
With Berry, every word is well chosen, every act of violence is painted Technicolor bright, and every setting, whether its Virginia or Deep Space, sticks in your memory as if you've been there and lived it.
One note: the novel works as a standalone story, even if you haven't read Snow Shark. Berry provides enough context so that the reader will not be lost without knowledge of book 1, so dive in.

Brain G Berry’s work in the field of horror is deep, vast, and varied, though for me, it’s his creature feature stuff that always seems to be his best work. That was made clear with 2022’s ridiculously stupid but amazingly fun �
Snow Shark but it’s cemented with the batshit craziness of its sequel: “Snow Shark II�.
Taking the campiness of the first one, and cranking it up to 11, Terror in Space delivers on practically every single level. From the claustrophobic horror of Alien, to the horrors of video games like Resident Evil to the tongue in check subject matter of Deep Blue Sea, Snow Shark II has something for everyone.
And if that’s still not enough for you cynics, how can you ignore the idea of freaking sharks in freaking space? It’s brilliant!
In all seriousness, this is, without a doubt, Brian G. Berry’s finest work. Sure it’s his most silly and most off the rails story to date, yet that’s what makes it so damn good. I don’t know if he can top it but if the trends continue, Snow Shark III is going to be masterpiece.

Snow Shark 2 is every bit as gory and fun as the first Snow Shark, only in space!
Sharks, mutants, blood and guts. What more could you want? Action! Lots of mayhem and death!
Oh, you want a story too? Well you’re in luck because the story is awesome too.
It follows 250 years after the first Snow Shark, but first Brian catches us up on the events just after that book concluded.
A contingent of soldiers have zeroed in on snow sharks location, and led by General Coy Hall, they attempt to capture it. This doesn’t go well of course. Blood! Death!However, snow shark is finally caught and everything seems cheery and bright.
Nope. We are brought to the present, where the mad Jacob Tresler, the architect behind a program that is designing new shark prototypes, is escorted by the Star Legion to the planet Talos to a laboratory complex. And of course snow shark is on the ship. However, things are definitely not going well in the lab and the soldiers must contend with multiple threats.
This was a great, campy and fun read that got several laughs out of me. It’s a mashup of 80’s horror, action and sci-fi and may remind you of certain games from aways back as you read.
It was a great break from my usual non-stop consumption of extreme horror and I give it ❄️ 🦈 ❄️🦈❄️!

Is there anything that sounds more bad ass than Snow Shark Wars? I don’t think so. Honestly, I wasn’t sure how Berry could improve upon the original but here we are. This was all the bonkers you got from Snow Shark but Brian tried to pour a little more into the mix and ended up spilling the whole damn bag in. In the Afterword, Brian says the book was inspired by video games like Resident Evil and that little nod is apparent; a team of specialists investigating a massive lab and being attacked by multiple creatures. Brian ran that basic concept through his brain at a million miles an hour while on a sugar high apparently and cranked out an absolute bonkers ooey gooey video game of a novel. Think Starship Troopers meets Alien: Resurrection� but with like� sharks and stuff. K thx.

A Coy Hall cyborg, a cyber shark, shark monkey creatures, and of course, FUCKING SNOW SHARK 🦈
I've read some of Brian's earlier books, and you can definitely see the evolution of his writing. Brian Berry is one of those writers who came into the indie scene and blew up overnight. With a huge following in the indie horror community, people are hungry for more of his imagination and passion through his stories, which he proudly delivers as he seems to release a book for his faithful readers every other week 😂
Snow Shark was the first book I've read by Brian during Shark Week last year. When he released Snow Shark 2, I forced myself to wait until this years Shark Week to read it and I have to admit, though the original Snow Shark was great, Snow Shark 2 was fucking amazing. Brian doesn't disappoint with his stories.
If you haven't read Snow Shark, please do it. Snow Shark continues to be one of my top favorite books, and now Snow Shark 2 is right up there next to it.

I have a bit of a soft spot for over-the-top, cheesy, sci-fi horror akin to the sorts of campy, fun B-movies that were common in the 1980's. Things like "Critters," or "C.H.U.D.," or "Killer Klowns from Outer Space" for example. There's a very particular mindset I engage when experiencing such content that generally allows me to overlook or outright ignore things that I'd normally find annoying or off-putting in a more "serious" read. That said, there is still a baseline of quality I crave and a tipping point of ridiculousness that such projects can exceed, which can sour me on them to varying degrees.
Consequently, "Snow Shark 2" was a bit of a mixed bag for me. As a fan of the original book, I admittedly had some hopes and expectations about how it might unfold. Many of those panned out and ultimately left me satisfied and entertained, and there were no doubt some very cool and memorable moments throughout the read. Unfortunately, it never fully clicked for me the way the first book did for a variety of reasons, which might well be a "me" thing, so when aspects of it occasionally cropped up that I didn't love, I found myself less enamored by the overall experience than I'd thought I might be.
Still, it was a solid, fun read and I liked more about it than I didn't. It just wasn't quite as much of a standout for me as the first book was. I'm giving this one a 3.25, which I'm rounding up as I wouldn't want to under-rate it.

Excellent way better than the first one yes General Hall makes a comeback as a cyborg plus many other surprises as well as a part 3 in the horizon.

This book delivers exactly what it advertises. Campy, ridiculous fun.

Absolutely crazy and over the top with its ideas. Horror trash at its best. Highly recommended.
