Excellent Read !!!

One of the best books I have read recently - engaging, enormously funny and very creative. The humor is phenomenal to be more accurate. After the first twenty or so pages, you will not be able to put this book away again. Highly recommended!

An literary gourmet's delight

Kyril Bonfiglioli knows how to mix a perfect cocktail of a book like no other. While others may sacrifice one quality for the sake of privaledging another, with the result of overwelming dryness or uninspiring wetness (lacrymose), Bonfiglioli knows how to stir up all the ingredients (a nice bit of brutality here, a sardonic observation there, a bit of satire elsewhere, and just a rumor of pathos) with the result of something of overall satisfaction and with the miracle of the individual flavors not being lost. His hero, the Hon. Charlie Mortdecai, I would rank even over the immortal Flashman for candid, rakish charm, and for a easy offhand (and yet pointed) manner of wit that would not have embarrassed you know who.

The Mortdecai Trilogy

A fine blend of Chandler and Wodehouse. Wicked violence, convoluted plots and sharp humor by the bucketload.
