1.0 out of 5 stars Pointless coaster brochure, April 18, 2001

By	Fabio Rossi (Milano, MI Italy) - See all my reviews

Being extremely interested in roller coasters and theme park attractions in general, yet also being terribly prone to motion sickness (yes, I know this sounds weird, and it is), I really looked forward to this book. Which, unfortunately, isn't a book at all, but a sort of slim and undersized prozine. And this is the first problem. Then we have extremely factless texts, which could only interest those who never had access to very basic information about roller coasters (like, yes they do have brakes, guys). And finally most photographs are straight out park brochures, thus very spectacular and very poorly reproduced.

Interesting only for cartoon chickens fans, as some of the cartoons introducing each chapter are actually damn funny.
