Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: The acclaimed BBC Radio dramatizations of six classic John Wyndham stories, with casts including Bill Nighy, Barbara Shelley, and Peter Sallis. With detailed sleeve notes recounting the making of the radio adaptations, and including Radio Times billings for the original radio broadcasts, this box set is guaranteed to appeal to all fans of thought-provoking, intelligent drama.

John Wyndham is one of Britain's most popular science fiction authors. His quietly menacing post-apocalyptic novels transcended the genre, appealing not only to fans of SF but also to a mainstream audience. INCLUDED HERE ARE:

''The Day of the Triffids'' is set in a world in which most people have been left blind after a meteor shower and lethal carnivorous triffids are roaming the land.

''The Kraken Wakes'' is a gripping story of monsters from the deep, alien invasion, and ecological disaster.

''The Chrysalids'' and ''Survival'' is a double bill dealing with the dark side of human nature. ''The Chrysalids'' explores the dangers of being different, while ''Survival'' focuses on the lengths people will go to in order to survive.

''The Midwich Cuckoos'' is a disturbing tale of a village sealed off from the world for a day, and subesequently taken over by terrifying, inhuman creatures.

''Chocky'' is a chilling tale of a boy who appears to be communicating with an invisible friend. Is Chocky more than a figment of Matthew's imagination?
