This one is even less original than the other book of his I reviewed "My Dog May Be a Genius." Same staid rhyming schemes, same not so funniness. Each poem is about a type of creature from some planet, not even different sorts of science fiction tales. Really ordinary.
Araminta Spook changes careers even more frequently than I do and in this book we find that Detectives are old hat - Werewolf huntering is in!
