Ogre

These books are always by-the-number but that doesn't make them any less fun to read. A bit of mindless nonsense that we need now and again. This wasn't the best but it had it's moments, especially when the history and mythology is brought in (the parts I always love about this type of book). I was just sat thinking, after the description of creature, “this does not sound like an ogre” and then the history of the word ogre is discussed (Tremayne's version anyway).
