I meant to get [b:Empire of the Ants|837039|Empire of the Ants (La Saga des Fourmis, #1)|Bernard Werber|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1388806191l/837039.SY75.jpg|123918] on inter-library loan but accidentally picked this up instead. Ended up reading it anyway and it is a quick romp through some of the more interesting breed of ants.
My only real criticism is that the author takes the position that we have to be convinced to take interest in these little critters at several points in the book. I found her insistence that I wasn't interested or that I could "skip ahead" at points to be a little annoying.
This was a solid surface overview of some of the more interesting types of ants accompanied by nice glossy pictures. Works for me.
