Customer Reviews

An informative and enjoyable book about sea life.

The book Killers of the Seas is by far one of the most enjoyable and educational books I have ever read. I love how there is a small overview of specific animals in each chapter. The book has dedicated only a few pages to specific marine life that educates the reader about different sea animals. Each chapter tells you about something new. This overview style keeps you turning the pages. I feel that this book has given me a good starting point to determine which sea animals I would like to further study. The book is exciting and interesting, I recommend Killers of the Seas to anyone who has a desire to learn more about the hydrosphere. I also feel that this book was extremely well written at that the author should be commended. In addition, although the book was written many years ago, many of the facts remain true to this day. Two thumbs up!
