A great collection of short stories from a wide variety of perspectives - from the paranormal to the everyday, to the life of an elephant - all well written.

The front cover of the book is very glossy with a beautiful picture of an elephant on it . I really enjoyed this read and found it hard to put down. It had good humour and also strong emotion particularly in the chapter on elephant poaching. I find it hard to choose a favourite chapter because they were all my favourite. George Radley is a very talented writer and this is a must read book .

I like the theme of karma running through many of the stories. I particularly like the story about the break-in and the story set in a factory. Very enjoyable.
