The Kraken Wakes John Wyndham
It started with fireballs raining down from the sky and crashing into the oceans' deeps. For journalists Mike and Phyllis Watson, what at first appears to be a curiosity becomes a global calamity. Then ships began sinking mysteriously and later 'sea tanks' emerged from the deeps to claim people.
Finally, sea levels begin their inexorable rise. Helpless, they watch as humanity struggles to survive now that water - one of the compounds upon which life depends - is turned against them. "The Kraken Wakes" is a brilliant novel of how humankind responds to the threat of its own extinction and, ultimately, asks what we are prepared to do in order to survive.
