I am bit disappointed by the style and the many swearing words in this book. I thought it was going to be epic and amazing when I started reading the introduction and the mention of Mokele-Mbembe. I thought that moat of The Congo's wonderful mysteries were going to be either debated or deciphered in this book. instead, I mostly read angry narratives, insults and yes, people dying throughout the book. CONGO, A FORGOTTEN WORLD is such a great title.

Things start to go wrong as they witness the famous primitive African legends, that were actually reported by explorers who got lost in the deep jungle and fearsome swamps from Central Africa.
