5.0 out of 5 stars Throttlepenny, 20 Jan 2006
The book was so good I did it for my exam in school. I love the way the writer creates so much tension within a few chapters and how he has one wee town in an up roar about someone who didn't really kill Throttlepenny. It's a great spin chilling book, I found it hard to put the book down.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent read with lots of unexpected twists!, 3 Oct 2000
By A Customer
I found this book really gripping and it kept me turning the pages long into the night. The story is based around a thirteen year old girl named Jessie. She works in a bakery with a miserable old man nicknamed Throttlepenny. Jessie hates him but would never dream of killing him. However when he is found murdered all the evidence points towards Jessie. Will anyone save a 13 year old girl from being hanged. An excellent read and I would recommend it to teenagers and up! A ***** book! Natalie (13)

1.0 out of 5 stars Anybody up for a BORED game?, 4 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Throttlepenny Murder (Cascades) (Hardcover)
I really didn't enjoy this book at all. The way it's set up is really terrible and I would have expected it to be a much better book than it was. I think the genre was all wrong and the way it's set back in 17th century or whatever it was, is really not a good way to catch the reader's attention. Some parts I really could not be bothered reading because it was so boring. I know the way it's set concludes to the story but some of the words are just not suitable for this boring book. And I mean who thought up the name " Fanny Gibbs" ? What a silly name to put in an old setting story like this? I really didn't enjoy it and I definitely would not recommend it!
