Recensioner i media

Ingenious and original, this book makes you rethink the nature of predators: gripped by lions, snakes and spiders, you'll be released in a world where the things that can kill, might just save us. Ultimately Coulson's toothsome array of predators, past and present, shows how they are essential for our future.
