review 1: I really love it! Now I see why Tom Holt is compared with Terry Pratchett. They create unique characters and funny plot. When I saw this book I understood - it's mine. Word games, hero-loser and mysterious jar. Fascinating! I love scenes with Maurice when he yells 'What's the hell!', 'How did they dare?!' and so on. Kinda funny reaction) I want to read "Doughnut" too because I like Theo the most=) He is a bit self-concerned and crazish like one of those who invent great things. I think his story will be even more interesting. Oh, of course, I learnt new thing about -ish (English is not my native language). And I really enjoyed the reading. I love when author plays with words and makes the reader think and laugh or laugh and then think)
review 2: This is the fir... morest Tom Holt book to disappoint me. The multiverse theory runs rampant without any restrictions which leaves the reader with absolutely no proper frame of reference.Also the book seems like a sequel to Doughnut, or just out-takes from his previous work. I still heartily recommend a number of Tom Holt books without reservations - Be sure to read "You Don't Have to Be Evil to Work Here, But it Helps" or "Blonde Bombshell", "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Sausages" or "May Contain Traces of Magic". All of which are very fun and funny. less
