There is a certain magic that occurs when the unbridled enthusiasm of a writer meets the unbridled enthusiasm of a reader. It is lightning in a bottle.

Cyril Aydon's style is so thoroughly enlightening and readable that even the roaming troll herd of evangelicals who didn't bother reading it at all, gave it TWO stars ~ twice their normal allowance for anything with "Darwin" or "Evolution" in the title.

Whether your interest in Charles Darwin is scientific or historical, obsessive or causal, reverent or dismissive, you should read this book. 5 stars.
