The billabong trail by James Chambers is a nicely paced book on a couples journey to find a mythical creature. The story keeps the reader intrigued enough to keep reading while not giving the ending away. The author definitely has a way with words. He had an amazing way of painting pictures in your head of the events in the book. With the events passing like a movie in HD, Hollywood style and clear. I particularly liked how the author included interviews and "evidence" from papers found by the main characters. The ending of the book was not my personal favorite, having left me with more questions than answers. Although, on that same note, it makes me want to read more books in this series to answer all those burning questions. All in all, it was a delightful read, easy to understand. To the point where I can see it being used in schools. I would definitely recommend it to all sorts of people!

Great cryptid short story. Good pacing, good use of suspense and nice descriptions kept the plot moving along and the reader invested. Long Island investigation of a creature killing migrant workers turns out to be loads more with a long history that spans two contitents.
