I was not expecting this to be a true story when I picked the book up, and finding out it was peaked my interest. The story of Dr. Spencer Black IS interesting, but more than that it's sad. There's clear trauma in his life
The second part of the book, that showed the details of Dr. Black's work, was all the more intriguing after reading about his life. It made me wonder about how he had convinced himself that creatures such as Ganesh, a goat/lion/snake hybrid or a minotaur had once been real, even though he wondered himself how such creatures would've survived.
One thing is for sure, though: dragons ARE real. A doctor said so.
