A review by sophieconstable
Otherlands by Thomas Halliday

4.0

This book is a history of life on Earth from 20,000 years ago to 550 million years ago. I found this book to be absolutely fascinating and incredibly readable. The writing style is brilliant and really draws you into these lost worlds. It's not overly technical and I was able to follow along pretty easily even though this is not my area of expertise. I would have liked some more illustrations throughout as the book introduced a lot of different species and some of them were hard to visualize. Would highly recommend.
