Book Reviews of The Great Shark Hunt: Strange Tales from a Strange Time
Book Review: A mind blowing experience
Summary: 4 Stars
Maybe you've seen the film Fear and loathing in Las Vegas and want to know more about the man behind it. Well, this is a great way to do it. The Great Shark Hunt consists of extracts of Dr Thompsons work. Yes, you'll find parts from Las Vegas here, but you'll find so much more. Reading this book, I had tremendously fun. Sometimes I laughed right out. How often do you do that reading? My favourite parts are The Kentucky Derby and The Great Shark Hunt, where Thompson takes sport journalism to a level it never want to find itself. So, all you really need to know is; if you haven't read this book - go ahead and enjoy yourself.
