Chapter 1 of Neil Shubin's novel began quite intriguing. The simplistic writing style makes it easy to understand especially for someone who finds it hard to focus. *cough cough* Shubin's narration takes you on a journey to discover the undiscovered in ways even a child can understand. You can tell that he is very well educated and spent a lot of time figuring out the perfect way to write this in understandable terms. Although some of his information is common sense or knowledge i have already acquired, the way he presents the material is refreshing and enjoyable. Other information is quite surprising yet fascinating. Who knew that there could be so many undiscovered species/animals amongst our billions of discovered animals. As the journey continues, his discoveries keeps the reader curious as to what the narrator might discover next. (Though for some reason i was expecting the discovery of some mythical creature or some fish with wings) This is definitely an interesting book. Can't wait though for the discovery of a totally bizarre animal!
