Super Suckers: The Giant Pacific Octopus and Other Cephalopods of the Pacific Coast by James Cosgrove and Neil McDaniel

I found this book to be a very informative "everything you ever wanted to know about giant pacific octopus" book. It's a quick read with lots of photos and stories of octo encounters by the authors.

I did however find it to be a little repetitive at times and was disappointed in the amount of words spent on octo harvesting in various forms. Sadly, it seems that octos spend a good deal of their time getting harvested so this may be appropriate.

Overall, I'd highly recommend checking out this book to gain an even greater respect for these amazing creatures.
