The Assimilated Cuban's Guide to Quantum Santeria by Carlos Hernandez
4.0
Hernandez has an astounding imagination. All of the stories are intriguing, some are disturbing, and the one about panda conservation was so bizarre and off-putting that I put the book down for three weeks before I could convince myself to finish it. Which is not to say that it was a bad story.
What's truly odd to me is the design. As far as I can tell, Rosarium is a legitimate (though small) publisher, but the interior design looks like a vanity press. I'd say it was printed straight from Word files, except MS Word does a better job with spacing between the headers and footers and the main text, and has an italics function. Very weird. This is a good book; it deserves a competent designer. (The cover is super, though.)
