LoveReading Says

Renowned children writer’s first adult novel and what fun he has had.  A tasteless joke overheard in a pub sends our protagonist off in search of its origins.  It is a crazy scenario, full of incident which suddenly changes gear and becomes a surreal tale, a thriller, a wacky caper.  Interesting, clever, unusual and a little sinister.
Comparison: Ben Elton, Stephen Fry, Douglas Adams.
Similar this month: Jasper Fforde, Tom Sharpe.
