Peter Gault writes in a scatalogical, satirical and often hysterically funny way. The premise of the book is that a lawyer chucks it all to sail away on his boat. His adventures and characters are great, especially Sir Charles. What Gault does to the end of the story can only be called derailing. I was laughing out loud through the first two thirds of the book until the author drops acid or decides that the readers are jerks. The ending deserved better treatment especially for so talented a writer. Overall, it is a quick worthwhile read for the few good laughs and insights
