In particular, Chapter 9 (on Ancient Domains of Mystery) reads like a first draft.

These little errors occur frequently enough that the book begins to feel like it hasn't been proofread at all, which starts to give it the feel of a published blog rather than a professionally written volume. The first two or three slip by easily enough - even the most polished tomes have some errors - but they begin mounting up. Although the relatively casual writing style does make the book far more accessible than it could have been (this is a subject which could easily be made quite dry), it also adds a slightly amateurish feel to proceedings which doesn't always work in the book's favour.Īdding to this hint of sub-professionalism are numerous spelling and grammatical errors, typos and other gaffs which should have been picked up by any half-competent proofreader. The sources are understandably mainly interviews, and some of the wording has a journalistic feel - a lot " told me" and " mentioned during our conversation". In some ways it feels more like journalism.

Generally a good, informative read which doesn't cover every single facet in minute detail but approaches the subject matter in the same sort of way as a good medium-weight history book - there's detail but not an overwhelming amount, while the writing style is almost conversational.
