What Our Customers Say...

Description

First Edition, Publishers' Original Binding

The first impression.

'The Day of the Triffids' is one of the most popular and important post-apocalyptic novels ever written.

In this sci-fi novel, most people have been blinded by what seems to be a meteor shower, after which an aggressive species of plants start killing people.

Written by John Wyndham, best known for this novel.
