While not the deepest novel much like the Kaiju movies it draws inspiration from entertaining and fun. The plot twists were predictable but they’re also tropes for a reason.

The characters felt like scientists and I appreciated the attempt to sorta make Kaiju plausible biologically. It was better than most attempts I’ve seen at doing that. 

My biggest issue is that jokes didn’t really get a chance to land. Character 1 would say the joke and then character 2 would repeat the joke which made a lot of them less funny to me.
