Having previously attempted to read the author's book 'The Breath of a Whale' and finding the writing too emotive and spiritual for my liking, when my hold for this book became available I almost returned it un-seen but decided in the end to give it a shot. 

I'm glad I did as I found it to be an interesting and mostly enjoyable read. I also learnt about a species I knew next to nothing about.

Very informative but fails to address more recent discoveries and schools of thought regarding the direction of Celtic migration.

Whilst informative, it's not the most enjoyable book to read. The author needed to either commit to being purely informative or needed to try harder at being entertaining.

This is a very well-narrated collection of thirty-two of Yeat's best works.

The collection spans his fifty year long career as a poet with several of the poems proceeded by a short, informative commentary that helps to place the poem into context.

My only criticism of this particular collection is that it doesn't include my favourite Yeat's poem - The Stolen Child.

I listened to this audiobook via Scribd, and you can view the track listings via the Naxos AudioBooks website.

A fun 13 episode collection of 10-15 minute episodes full of interesting animal facts along with Sue Perkins trademark humour.

Basically, it's a Michael Bay action movie in book form.
It's competently written, and the plot is fast, fun, and full of action. 
With a little willingness to suspend disbelief, this story becomes an enjoyable time, one that is especially good for when you want something full of action but don't want to use much brainpower.

The Krakren Wakes is a personal favourite of mine, and I have read it so many times that I'm finding it very difficult to review.

Without having fresh eyes on it, I'm struggling to see the elements I would usually point out or mention in a review.

What I can say is that I love that it's a slow build with moments of excitement. Whilst a little dated, I feel the global response to the situation is very likely, especially the attack-first attitude and the wavering levels of public interest as time passes.

I also genuinely enjoy the relationship between the protagonists.

If you prefer audiobooks, I highly recommend the version narrated by Alex Jennings (an Audible exclusive).

I love when modern authors make classical texts more accessible to the wider public, and this is no exception.

Well written, easy to engage with and follow, a pinch of added humour and a bit of social narrative, and you have a very good introduction to the story of Troy.

A short story about two travellers on the Danube and their experience with a wild, unseen malevolence.

Blackwood is a master at describing the beauty, awe, and terror of the natural world, and 'The Willows' showcases this ability perfectly.

A nice collection of 13 ghost stories from several countries.
The variety is enjoyable as the collection isn't made up of the usual suspects found in most ghost story anthologies.

As with most collections of gothic horror, my main complaint is the prominence of male authors.
