by David James

"The crocodile was racing past him, and Reamers only had time to look up as the beast's mouth opened wide, then closed with a sickening crunching sound around the torso of one of the men." For years people had heard the rumours about crocodiles and alligators lurking in the sewers of New York -- and for years everyone had laughed about them with scorn, but now...

Actual rating: 3.5 stars. However, since I love stories about nature kicking ass on us lowly humans, I can give it the bump to 4. RDCV of plot: a crocodile somehow wound up in the NYC sewers (why is every damn story involving a city based around that dump?) and it has been living there for years. Two sewer workers are down in there investigating a blockage, and the croc chomps one of them. The other guy (Peter Boggs) escapes, and is later talked into going down there to try to shoot the gator wit
Actual rating: 3.5 stars. However, since I love stories about nature kicking ass on us lowly humans, I can give it the bump to 4. RDCV of plot: a crocodile somehow wound up in the NYC sewers (why is every damn story involving a city based around that dump?) and it has been living there for years. Two sewer workers are down in there investigating a blockage, and the croc chomps one of them. The other guy (Peter Boggs) escapes, and is later talked into going down there to try to shoot the gator with a pistol. He is stuck down there for the rest of the story, and the other characters are cops who become convinced that a croc is in the sewers. They head down to try to rescue the guy, and kill the croc. The End. Silly plot? Yes, but who cares? You don't read these type of books looking for complex plots or characters pontificating about weighty social issues, such as a solution to the disparity of wealth in our country, or how Trump managed to get elected. You read these books to be ENTERTAINED, and in that aspect, CROC delivers. It moves fast, there is no time wasted deviating from the plot (no secondary plot threads here, you don't need em') and it is exciting. The croc pursuing Boggs is a good chunk of the book, and it was genuinely fun, I really liked the descriptions of misery in the sewers while Boggs tries to escape, yet the croc keeps outmaneuvering him. Three cheers for silly stories like this! Bottom line: it's fast, fun, and worth reading for a couple hour's escape from reality.

This is a fun quick read. It doesn't come close to the master of giant creatures (Guy N Smith) but is still great fun if you like this sort of thing (which I do, obviously). Not brilliant but, believe me, there are a lot worse out there.

Love the cover of this old paperback. Thirty foot crocodile lurking in a NY sewer. A fast paced and quick read. Nothing better than a reptile devouring flesh.
