It was only a matter of time before Nick Redfern pulled together his cryptozoological adventures and discoveries (and more besides) into an encyclopedia format… and here it is. Covering nearly 200 creatures or entities, real and supposed, and profusely illustrated, it is a valuable resource for serious and casual readers. Just as importantly, Redfern’s exposition is well written, reliable and balanced. Ideal for libraries and schools.
