       Adventures Of A Veterinarian In Outer Space

A Review of

Andrew M. Sedden The Death Cats of Asa'ican (Splashdown                                               Books, 2015)
                 240 pp   $1298   ISBN: 978192715

Reviewer:  Forrest W. Schultz

     Doctor Hughes is a space traveling exobiologist and veterinarian who has all kinds of exciting and interesting adventures as he travels around the galaxy where he meets and treats all kinds of super-weird biotic entities too numerous to even list here and too complex to even attempt to describe in a brief review.  If you enjoy reading about far out entities and phenomena, I recommend this book. And Dr. Hughes even has a traveling companion who is a German Shepherd dog to which all kinds of tinkering have resulted in an animal who is almost part human in various ways, and, I think, far more interesting than Chewbacca! Because of his concern, Dr. Hughes has founded a group he calls Wellness for Other Life Forms, which is a good organization, although, frankly, I do NOT like the acronym formed by these capital letters -- WOLF, which, to me (and I think most people), has a pejorative connotation:  if you are one such, please be assured these are the good guys!

     For information on the author (who, by the way) is a medical doctor) you can visit his website www.andrewseddon.com.
