Rating: 4/5
This small survival guide was both funny, handy, and pretty interesting. I didn’t know that a bite from a shark wouldn’t hurt much as long as you were under water. Apparantly many divers in the past who have encountered shark attacks said they couldn’t feel almost anything at all from their chomped up leg until they dragged themselves out the water, and that is because there is a special acid running through the blood of the human body which makes it less painful in water. Indeed, it was kind of hard to understand, but the main point is not to worry too much if you get involved in a nasty shark attack. And just remember, that doesn’t mean not to worry at all.
This book, based on the novel series Ruby Redfort, was really good; only it was not really the type of book I read all the time, what with the ‘bozo’s and the ‘buster’s all the way through on every other sentence. But it was quite funny and made me want to read the full-sized Look Into My Eyes, and Take Your Last Breath, the Ruby Redfort novels by the same author.
