5.0 out of 5 stars Mancunian Tour De Force 23 Jan 2012
By P. Evans
Format:Kindle Edition
Right from page one this book pulls you into the gritty underbelly of Manchester, inhabited by Jimmy and his pals.
It is a credit to the author that despite the wonderfully bizarre and inventive scenarios being painted, you never feel that the situation becomes completely implausible, and the dialogue is sharp, very comical and well observed.
This is a book that could have easily have been a depressing tale of those who wish to shuffle off with more than a whimper. Instead, it is a very amusing black comedy where the the characterisations jump off the page, and capture the readers imagination. 10/10

Looking forward to reading the sequel "Last Laugh Limited".

5.0 out of 5 stars I need another!!! 7 Mar 2009
By Joanne Stevenson
Format:Hardcover
I stumbled accross this book whilst staying at a lodge in the lakes, and for someone who never reads, i could not put it down.

What a fantastic idea, and only Andy Tilley will really know how he came up with somthing so original and funny.

My wife ended up having to buy this for me just so i could finish it, and it has now left me wanting more please!!

To sum this book up, i would say that from start to finish i had a permanant smile on my face, and in fact, i now want to read it again just in case there was anything i missed first time around.

Thanks Andy, please can i have another one soon!!

Ian Stevenson.

3.0 out of 5 stars weird
Quirky but weird plot line for this one, characters not particularly likeable and rather hapless, and you know something is bound to go wrong. An OK read

Light and easy going but a bit bizarre. Not quite the story line I was expecting but enjoyable all the same.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent comic read
Wont tax the brain, perfect holiday escapism. Free to download at the time and more in the same series. Recommend, especially as not over long.

4.0 out of 5 stars Funny Black Comedy
Amusing black comedy that makes you laugh and has enough surprises to stop the idea running out of steam before the end

5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh and funny
Apart from being a little far fetched at times but let's face it who wants to read about the humdrum and ordinary, I have nothing but praise for this book. Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars ok book, not great
Found this book not too bad although maybe trying too hard to be blokey and cool. Got quite exciting a few times but unfortunately didn't continue for long and fizzled out.

As a relative newcomer to the benefits of reading novels, I look for the reviews first and then the story line second. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A really good read
This book was very entertaining. At first it took me a while to get into it, as I knew the rough outline of the plot and wasn't sure how it could make for a good read. Read more
