I have to admit it was far better than it seemed the first time I tried to read it. For some reason I just couldn't get into it then.

I'm now concentrating my attentions on The Day of the Triffids by John Wyndham and really enjoying it. It's far better than I remember the early 1960s movie being. I understand the BBC did a mini series as well for television, but I haven't seen that.
