“The beginning investigator will find no better guide to professional inquiry than Robert A. Goerman’s WEIRD HAPPENS Investigator Handbook. Meticulous in its organization, Goerman offers numerous checklists that will serve well to advise the beginner—and to remind the more experienced investigator—how to conduct an effective interview and how to amass meaningful research.”
—Brad Steiger, author Real Ghosts, Restless Spirits and Haunted Places and 162 other books on the paranormal and weird
“Goerman stands out as a rare mediator between the skeptics and the believers. While respectfully acknowledging the genuine strangeness of weird experiences, he does what few skeptics take the trouble to do: Encourages investigators with effective tools for doing good science and collecting real data that will stand up to scrutiny.”
—Brian Dunning, www.briandunning.com/1000questions
“In WEIRD HAPPENS, Robert A. Goerman has provided an invaluable and indispensable tool for the budding paranormal investigator. Would that many popular, published authors had read this book before writing anything! It would have raised the level of discourse in this field by a huge margin.”
—David F. Godwin, managing editor FATE

"5 STARS! W - O - W ! That says it all. This book begins fast and only gets faster. The ending is a bit surprising and left me begging for more! Very highly recommended!"
"It was pleasing to find a fast-paced story where the character doesn't perform 'impossible' or 'ridiculous' feats or actions. This is one of the few books I've read that I would like to see made into a motion picture."
"...Leaves you turning pages almost faster than you can read them. I found myself wanting to equate it with a Tom Clancy novel, in that he makes you aware of the technology, explaining the ability of each, but never once does he slip into "technobabble." This story is firmly set in the "real world" and that only adds to the whole this may happen feeling of the book. I know I have said in other reviews that whatever I was reading should be a movie, and without turning the phrase into a cliché, this one should definitely be added to that list. As long as I keep getting books that are the quality of Himmler's War, then the steak will continue."
