Mystery Animals of the British Isles: The Western Isles, by Glen Vaudrey, is the third volume from Britain's CFZ Press in a series that is proving to be an ambitious and well-received venture. The project is under the aegis of the Centre for Fortean Zoology, overseen by the rollicking Jon Downes, and its aim is to produce a book on the mysterious creatures of "each and every one of the counties of the British Isles." Here Nick Redfern, no stranger to publication of books about weird animals, undertakes the pleasurable job of reviewing Vaudrey's book. Redfern notes Vaudrey directs his reports to the strange beasts reported from the "island-chains" off Scotland's northwest coast. What gruesome creatures have graced the reports of the villagers and seamen off the coast of Scotland?
