Summary: De-evolution in the Everglades
Review: An interesting combination of the old 50's horror movies in which radiation - or something similar - creates fearsome mutations in the animal world and the "Lost World" genre. Kreps' creative adaptation of these two themes uses the Florida Everglades as the setting and includes some humans of Seminole ancestry, along with Everglades animals, as victims of strange electromagnetic forces. The science is plausible enough for a work of fiction and the reader learns about the part of the Everglades that the tourist attractions of airboats and swamp buggies don't come close to reaching. This novel would make a good screenplay for a TV movie.

Summary: It aint no JAWS rip-off
Review: Ever since since I saw the cover for this book, which features a mean looking alligator head with trickles of blood drippin' out the mouth, I've loved it. Got at this new used bookstore called "the bookshelf" for 2 bucks. And it was well worth it. My favorite part is when that ranger nmed Juan gets it! But I spoil you on how he gets it. It's just gory. You can read Juan's death right before the story. I'm just saying that THIS,BOOK,ROCKS. That's all I will say.
