We have an innate fascination with the world of hunters, parasites and nasty critters lurking to inflict themselves upon us. Bloodsuckers highlights a subject that both fascinates and horrifies readers, approaching it in an informative and entertaining way.
From leeches and mosquitoes to vampire bats and lampreys (bloodsucking fish), it’s all here. This remarkable book will resonate strongly with all those who have a fascination with the dangerous, the grotesque and the plain icky.
