Publisher's Summary
On the Isle of Wight, a colony of survivors wakes to a world plunged into darkness. Before long, the triffids, thought safely out of the way on the mainland, attack....
In John Wyndham’s classic best seller The Day of the Triffids the world has been overwhelmed by killer plants. As the novel ends, Wyndham’s narrator scientist Bill Masen is escaping, with his wife and four-year-old son, to the Isle of Wight where a small colony of survivors is holding out. Simon Clark’s sequel picks up the story 25 years on.
The survivors are safe, for the time being at least, on their island, where they have continued efforts to combat the triffids, while also striving in various ways to build a new civilization. Elsewhere in the world, similar colonies cling to survival, while the triffids persist in their attempts to destroy humanity.
One morning Bill Masen’s son, David, now grown up, wakes to a world plunged into darkness. Now, the triffids have an advantage over humanity.

entertaining
Not an epic masterpiece, however it was an enjoyable audio performance. Good voice acting, solid story, another chapter in the Triffid story.

Audio needs improving
Great story and narration but the noises were far too loud during some sections. Audio needs to be a bit better balanced.

Needs the audio to be balanced - or just remove the special effect sounds
Only thing I didn’t like (that seemed to impact it greatly) was the background music and special sound effects. The audio balance didn’t seem right and half the time I couldn’t hear the characters and had to continuously readjust the volume due to the sudden loud special effects sounds and tunes.

Not like Day of the Triffids
Lots of effects on the audio. Story was confused and nothing like the Day of the Triffids. Disappointing
