For sheer entertainment value, probably one of the best books I’ve read all year.
Mr Brooke’s writing is direct, intelligent without being pretentious, and thoroughly entertaining. His ideas and characters are modern, including his theme of corruption and subterfuge in business and recycling, and it’s all tied together with just the right blend of humour, violence and irony.
How he managed to come up with this plot, the characters and the events is beyond me, but he weaves a great tale which I will one day re-read. (And that’s a big compliment coming from me – read a book once, find out how it ends, and that’s usually it – give me the next one!)
Highly recommended.
Art for art's sake
