This book purports to be a novel. Frankly I didn't see it. It appeared to be a collection of
disconnected narratives that I never could quite connect. Some of the narratives were interesting but
some were beyond dry. Sometimes it
reads as a text book and other times it seems like a novel.
There seem to be a couple of plots that are
intermingled. Puns seem to enter into
the equation with some of the names, such as Edvard Tossenturn or Worse. There were things that piqued my interest,
giant condors, invisible fish, illegal loggers and mosquitos.
I have read other reviews that infer this is a book for the
scientific mind, I guess that my review proves that is something I lack.
I am sure that someone will find this book entertaining or
enlightening but I didn't and most likely that is my failure not the authors.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
