A review by sorkatani
The Kraken Wakes by John Wyndham
5.0
The Krakren Wakes is a personal favourite of mine, and I have read it so many times that I'm finding it very difficult to review.
Without having fresh eyes on it, I'm struggling to see the elements I would usually point out or mention in a review.
What I can say is that I love that it's a slow build with moments of excitement. Whilst a little dated, I feel the global response to the situation is very likely, especially the attack-first attitude and the wavering levels of public interest as time passes.
I also genuinely enjoy the relationship between the protagonists.
If you prefer audiobooks, I highly recommend the version narrated by Alex Jennings (an Audible exclusive).
