Kraken Keep eBook Jean Kilczer
I have read many of Jean Kilczer's books and enjoyed them all. This book has some interesting moments of the reality of Jean's character. She reveres her two dogs and I was not surprised that Tessica's dog was of the same breed. Jean also is an animal rights person. She is particularly vocal about how wolves are treated in this country. Knowing that made it easier for me to understand and feel the intensity of her characters being antagonistic to the killing of the "giants."This book is set in 2041 and postulates a new type of octopus has evolved, perhaps from nuclear explosions in Bikini or perhaps from pollutants poured into the sea by the Japanese and others. At first there is fear because the new Octopi are quite large and have an acid in their bodies that is dangerous to man. As the crew of first the Reverence and then the Cousteau begin to learn about these giant octopi and deal with them many new ideas arise and much respect is learned both by the creatures and the crew of the Cousteau. In the process the crew encounter pirates and a preacher who wants to kill off scientists, as well as illegal fishermen of the Octopi that are killing them and selling their meat.
This is an exciting story that keeps you moving right along with all that is happening from time to time. The characters are not complex though they are developed. The story line keeps working right to the end. This was a fun read that I finished quite quickly. I would recommend this book to anyone over the age of 18 and only put that restriction on as a result of a moment of somewhat graphic sex that fits right into the flow of the story and is necessary. Five stars is easy for this one.

Kraken Keep eBook Jean Kilczer Reviews
The plot is intriguing. However, the characters had little development, The plot seemed to jump too much and it made for a difficult read. If a book is difficult for me to read, I usually don't finish it as it fails to hold my interest. I read for entertainment and because I enjoy reading so much. But the book has to hold my attention and this one didn't. Sorry, but I would not recommend this book for easy reading entertainment.
I have enjoyed other books by this author and chose one that is not in her Star Sojourner series. The Star Sojourner series is awesome.
This story was intense. It’s obvious the author knows about diving. The underwater scenes were scary for me. I felt like I was right there.
Kraken’s Keep is a very interesting and informative sci fi story. Well done with a depth to each character that speaks of seasoned character development. Many unforgettable moments in this book will stay with me for a long time.
I give it a full five stars and recommend it to readers of sci fi, especially underwater/ocean adventure!
Kraken's Keep is a wonderfully exciting read! A science fiction thriller and love story combined. Author Jean Kilczer has the most astounding and vivid imagination around. I can't wait to see her ratings bounce her to the top of the charts/market! Kilczer is a reader of Shakespeare, and the quality of her writing shows it--without diminishing by one whit her ability to describe alien species (in this case, giant octopi), while writing with suspense, action, poetry, tragedy, and comedy. Though not part of her celebrated Star Sojourner Series (this is from her earlier work), the characters in Kraken's Keep exhibit their usual mischief and incomparable foibles. You've got to read this amazing book yourself to see what I mean! [This book contains some explicit sexual material, so recommended for adult readers only.]
--Erica Miles, author of Dazzled by Darkness
Good story, good characterization, some plot lines are weak. Our heroine probably wouldn't survive in the real world. She takes chances that would kill her out here. The story flows well if you can suspend belief.
