Plunged is penned by author Shilo Creed in the science fiction, fantasy, Christian, and adventure subgenres. The story begins when Navy Seal Jacob Carter faces an experimental mission with a cloaked ship, thrusting him into a spiritual realm beyond all imagination. Struggling against enemies and dark intentions, he battles to survive while unconscious. His nurse, Sage, fights alongside him, with both being affected by strange radiation. As they navigate parallel worlds and evade super soldiers, Jacob’s faith becomes crucial in shaping the future. The author has crafted an imaginative and emotive novel that takes readers on a riveting journey into the depths of the unknown.
The premise of a Navy Seal navigating not only physical threats but also spiritual dimensions added a unique juxtaposition of ideas, combining traditional heroism traits with a new inner fortitude and emotional growth journey. Shilo Creed masterfully wove together elements of science fiction and spirituality for new twists and surprises around every corner, keeping me on the edge of my seat throughout with well-connected, exciting, and believable plot events. Jacob’s struggle to protect his crew while grappling with his own existential crisis was compelling and Sage’s role as both caregiver and ally added more nuance with some excellent dialogue and dynamic personalities connecting to our hero’s journey. The exploration of parallel worlds and the consequences of human experimentation was balanced with gorgeous atmospheric language and detailed exposition to ensure that readers always understand what’s going on. Overall, Plunged offers a thrilling blend of action, suspense, and philosophical inquiry that leaves a lasting impression, and I would certainly recommend it to Christian sci-fi and fantasy readers everywhere.
