I was attracted to Wild Dark Shore by its hardback cover, which is stunning—drawn in by the dark, mysterious waves depicted therein. Of course, it was the audiobook I ended up consuming. This was narrated by an unbelievably gruff, monotonous man and a woman who carried our main character with a complete range of emotions. (and a lovable voice for the youngest child to boot)
I’m not a big fan of romance. Wild Dark Shore earns it in the end, but for most of its length it gives character background as a justification for a forbidden romance the author has already established. When the focus is put on sex and desire when there are more interesting themes at play, it cheapens the plot.
This novel reads like it was written with a television series in mind. It was a pretty good book, written quite well, but it would be a great ITV miniseries.
This is the second story with a hydrophone I’ve read this year.
