Simon Okill's "Phantom Bigfoot Strikes Again" is an interesting twist on a creature that normally barely makes it past the pages of tabloids and conspiracy websites.Okill not only gives these large creatures personalities, but an entire mini-community complete with dialect, customs and unique abilities. His characters are inventive but realistic, and he does an excellent job telling a lot about them and their personalities without using long-winded descriptions.The author also does a good job creating a cohesive plot with his human characters acting in predictably human ways to confusing and startling events, which I appreciate. The book has its outright funny moments, but it also has some folded in humor that is sure to make those paying attention smile.This is the perfect book to give a pre-teen or teenager on a long car ride or when they end up stuck with you in the doctor's waiting room as it is sure to keep them entertained. As they chuckle their way through you might even want to lean over and take a gander yourself.
