The Infusorium by Jon Padgett

paulataua's review

3.0

I thought I’d read ‘The Infusorium’ before deciding whether to go on to read ‘The Secret of Ventriloquism’ collection from where it came. It was certainly original and definitely a little weird, but I really struggled with it. Raph, the detective in this case of the discovery of elongated skeletons in the fog surrounded Municipal Park, never really felt real, and the way in which the author added atmosphere destroying quips for no understandable reason just put me off. And so the book goes back on the shelf until my memory fades and I am again attracted by the unusually titled “The Secret of Ventriloquism’.
