In the year 2036, the whole of Kingsby county has been flooded after
several weeks of torrential rain. Only a few villages have escaped the
flood. One of these is the village of Pennyworth, where Tom and Jenny
live.
When the inhabitants of nearby Brook Falls arrive and attempt to lay
claim to Pennyworth, a struggle ensues that places the residents of each
village against each other in a battle of wills that threatens to change
all their lives forever. Can Tom, Jenny and their friends persuade the
new arrivals that a conflict can be avoided before all is swept away by
The Flood That Did Come?
A story of struggle, childhood friendship, and archaic bureaucracy in a
little England drowning in its own future past, The Flood That Did Come
is the debut graphic novel from artist, writer and musician Patrick
Wray, told in woodblock stamped artwork reminiscent of classic
childrens' stories.
