I wanted to like this, but for some reason, the format just throws me off. I can't follow the whole Q and A format. Thank you anyway and good luck with the book. I will not post a review.

I picked this up because I wanted it to be like Iron Giant. It wasn't, unfortunately, but it was still good.

I really enjoyed this book, it was different and well written. i thinked the concept and the characters, and i look forward to reading the second book.

Sleeping Giants read like mature sci-fi. It is told in the form of interviews, journal entries, reports and news articles, amongst others, so it is safe to say it is not an emotional narrative style. Personally, I loved the detached approach to the narrative and I kept wanting to know what happened next. There were moments of great excitement, suspense and awe and I had never read anything quite like it.

All interviews are conducted by a mysterious individual who orchestrated all efforts into putting together a team to solve the puzzle the book relates.
The book approaches different issues like how government handles delicate situations, work relations, religion, amongst many others.

I cannot begin to tell you how much I enjoyed the narrative style not only because it was detached but because it was subtle. We are told how things happened through different characters and different methods and nothing is repeated, although you may get different perspectives of the same event. So if you are reading something through, let's say, an interview, there might be a news article after that and then an experiment log and you get to know everything that happened, everything relevant anyway. I appreciate that a lot.

There isn't much more I can say without giving too much away. (view spoiler) Still, I thought the plot was well constructed and this was a surprisingly character-driven story, which is quite unusual, at least from other sci-fi books I read. While the style is not for everyone, I for one enjoyed it very much and recommend it.

Disclaimer: I would like to thank the publisher and Netgalley for providing me a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Yes! I love everything about this book. It was exactly what I needed at the right moment. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to review this in time so my exact thoughts have gone out the window. The one thing I did jot down was how much the format reminded me of "World War Z", which I also loved.

I did have a little banter back and forth on twitter with the Author, who is very friendly and forthcoming with his fans. I admire him, the book and will look forward to anything else he comes out with.
