The author said his book is a way to merge science with creationism. Not so. He gave the ever changing science the role of the highest authority and downgraded creationism as having no authority, therefore discounting all the science-backed facts that prove the Bible and the opinions of his science colleagues who disagree with him.

Review from In Search of Mycotopia →
I really enjoyed this book. The depth and breadth of information not only directly about fungi, but also about how humans are affected mentally, physically, psychologically, spiritually, and financially by fungi is phenomenal. Definitely has me wanting to join a local mycological group and start enjoying the benefits of a life enhanced by mycology.
This book is really about one coach’s approach (Bob Larsen) to training for world class marathon performance. The plot line follows several runners under Bob’s tutelage. It’s an interesting insight into the running sport from one perspective, by an author who has a strong admiration of coach Larsen.

I’m a born and raised Texan, so unnatural sounding readers irks me some, but not enough to not listen. As always Mr. Wortham is a phenomenal writer, and his story lines are captivating.
Given the giant arc of time, psychology, history and sheer volume of killers covered, this is an amazing listen. One of those rare quantity and quality listens for anyone trying to learn more about the past phenomenon of serial murder. Also a useful jump-start for anyone trying to learn more about lesser known murderers.
