Negative Positive
Title: Good (Despite An Inept Use Of The Language)
Review: Karl Shuker, author of the superb "From Flying Toads to Snakes with Wings," once again succeeds in entertaining and informing. This, despite an absurd and annoying writing style (at least in this book). I suspect that Dr. Shuker is trying to be amusing and clever, but his style is only coy and distracting. Too much alliteration, too much emphasis on Latinate language, and a veritable obsession with the word "conversely." Memo to Dr. Shuker: You're the goods, so cut out the pompous nonsense.
