In the introduction, Williams describes the first deep-sea exploration vehicle, built in the 1930s by William Beebe and Otis Barton. One of the more fascinating themes in the book-though I'm not sure it's intentional-is how squid are often reviled and hated by humans. Not that the science of squid can't be interesting, I just don't want to read a whole book about it. However, for some completely illogical reason, I thought it was going to be about the cultural history of squid as opposed to the sciency stuff (which is pretty silly considering the word "science" is right there in the title). I was blissfully excited about learning more about squid. There are so many cool things about squids: they're super-intelligent, for one, and there lots of different kinds, and they're very mysterious.ĪNYwayyyy, that's why I leaped upon Kraken when I saw it offered for review. Note: This post contains some images which may be NSFW (yay, my first NSFW post!).Ī not-so-secret: I love squids.
