Somebody in the cyber-woods wants your money



“Predators in the Woods” is an eclectic collection of short eye witness accounts about encounters with paranormal creatures. Exactly half of the e-book consists of excerpts from other e-books by the same author, while the other half is new. There is no attempt at a synthesis or explanation, and the accounts differ widely in quality and character. Some are ghostly or just ghastly, others seem to be more physical (including Bigfoot encounters). There's a whiff of conspiracy thinking in the book, with the Nephilim and the Knights Templar making guest appearances. We also “learn” that the Falklands War was really a conflict over the control of a mysterious bio-organic substance, extraterrestrial in origin, found only in the South Atlantic. Eh? Not a very good e-book, all things consider. As a collection it only deserves one star, but since some of the witness accounts have a certain intrinsic interest, I will give it two.
