Book Description

9 April 2010
The World of Sherby57 is one of the most loved blogs on the whole of the internet. Well, it is to me because I wrote it. I can't speak for anybody else.This book is a collection of the best posts from the first two years. They've mostly been rewritten so there is a point to buying the book and not just reading them online.Plus there is a new conclusion to the epic Fireheart! tale. Thrilling stuff. Read it today. Please.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely stuff. 26 May 2010
By Ste
So, what this book is, right, is some blog posts put into a book. Sounds simple, yeah?

Well, yes, it is simple, but it's also more complicated than you could ever possibly imagine. For a start, most of the blog posts (from the excellent "The World of Sherby57") have been extensively rewritten. There's also an extended and completed version of the popular Fireheart! serial (Johnny Fireheart, the central character, can only be described as a cultural phenomenon). It's hilarious, life-affirming stuff dripping with condensed Zeitgeist.

But that's just the tip of the metaphorical and literal cluster of icebergs that are psychically heading in your direction. The sub-text of the book's meandering musings are so meta that my post-modern irony gland actually burst. I was rushed to metaphysical hospital and following an emergency postmodernironyglandendectomy (with a follow up course of astral antibiotics) I made a full recovery. Sure, I've now lost my ability to detect irony in any of its forms, but it was a small price to pay for the joy that this book brought upon my very soul.

Buy it.
