Montroll's books usually rate 5 stars when compared with other origami books in the market but when compared with his other books, it rates only 3 stars, or average, hence the title, "more of the same". People who have folded many of Montroll's models would know what I mean.
I have all if not most of Montroll's books. His later books generally do not rate higher than "Origami for the Enthusiast" or "Animal Origami for the Enthusiast".
I would prefer if he is able to put in at least three or more extra complex models like his lobster, crab and stegosaurus in every new book he produces.
This book generally follows the same pattern as most of his books and the models are in the intermediate range. The wet folding technique mentioned in the book does not raise this book above his other books (note I compare with his other books, not origami books in general). I did not see any new models which makes me excited and wanted to fold immediately. I will probably keep this book for a slow day.
If you are new to Montroll's models, this book would interest you and recommended. If not, it depends on you, a Montroll fan or not. The usual topics are there. Montroll's models are usually easy to follow and fold and a worthwhile book to purchase for those who have not seen that many Montroll's books.
John Montroll, if you are reading this, I am waiting for Montroll to produce a book on origami insects and/or origami vehicles. Remember to add at least 3 super complex models to satisfy old time fans like me.
Thanks.
