5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent overview of a difficult topic - and creepy, too., June 16, 2002

This review is from: Strange creatures from time & space

Like a couple of other reviewers, this book came into my hands around the age of ten. What is it about that age? I think perhaps it's an age where you're beyond tales of talking animals, but not yet ready for 'serious' books. As it did for the other reviewers, 'Strange Creatures from Time and Space' started me on a life-long interest in the unusual and unexplained.
The book covers strange phenomena from around the planet, throughout history. It includes not just UFO's, but Mothman, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, as well as other odd creatures and events. Mr. Keel knits these disparate topics together and so becomes one of the creators of study of the paranormal, as viewers of 'The X-Files' would recognize it.
The book leaves you wanting more on certain subjects, but as an introduction it's outstanding. Let me put it this way - if you don't enjoy this book, don't bother reading any others on this topic because you're obviously not interested in it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The definitive book on everything unexplained, September 6, 2000

This review is from: Strange creatures from time & space

I recommend this book to every curious person I know. I even try to work it in (2 or 3 times annually) to the sports (!) column I write weekly.

"Strange Creatures From Time and Space" is the most intriguing book I've ever read. I first became acquainted with it when in high school and have thought about it thousands of times in the decades since.

If you get one John A. Keel book (which is a mistake; grab "The Mothman Prophesies" too!), get "Strange Creatures From Time and Space."

And lock the door...watch out for those creepy, unknown, REAL(?) creatures!

5.0 out of 5 stars best book of it's kind, April 3, 2001

This review is from: Strange creatures from time & space

in the 30 years of reading on this subject,this book has without a doubt been the best book of it's kind that I've come across.I got this book when it was a relatively recent print and it addresses so much that still is not given much attention to even so many years later.A lot of this info is only available in this book.If you can find it,buy it.At the very least try to read it at least once.
