Not bad for what it is, which is a collection of weird things articles by Frank Edwards. I admittedly expected more circus-freak type stories and less of the idiots savants, psychics and ghost stories, but still a fascinating collection of the marginally believable, with a lot of stories I wasn't already over-familiar with. Though being Frank Edwards, it's badly researched, not cited at all, and probably half-made-up. ( ) no reviews | add a review
