review 1: I can honestly say this book was a pleasant surprise to me, a complete departure to the sort of thing I would normally ready, but never the less, I ended up enjoying it.The book is an easy read and moves a long at a pace sufficient to keep you interested with a plot that is neither complex nor overbearing and although Wilt is the main charter, the multi-point-of-view telling of the story works well in its advantage. I would not describe the comedy as laugh-out-loud humour, more like snigger to oneself, and it works in the same way as a 1950s British Ealing comedy: without causing offence.I would not describe the books in terms of not being able to put it down, but at the same time found myself finishing it over a weekend, so its more of a sneak up and enjoy me sort of read... more with the main character, Wilt, being very believable, all in all a thumbs up from me.
review 2: I really enjoyed reading the early Wilt books, in my late teens, but found Tom Sharpe's previous book a disappointment, in my opinion, so it was with some scepticism that I started 'The Wilt Inheritence', but I'm so glad I did! Yes, the focal point of the story has changed a bit since earlier stories - the now teenage Wilt quadruplets form the mischevious focus nowadays, managing to cause a nightmare for their long-suffering father and their snobbish, over-bearing mother. The scrapes and misunderstanding come as thick and fast as they ever did. Great fun! less
