Book Reviews of Out of the Crater

Book Review: well worth a read!
Summary: 4 Stars

This book really lets you get inside the mind of a volcanologist and discover what it's really like! Volcanology is a relatively unknown science and the risks peaople take go mostly unnoticed, this book describes everything in such detail that you feel as if you're really there, taking the risks! Even though the writing can sometimes become a little complicated, this is well worth a read!
