5.0 out of 5 stars The funniest book i've ever read., 23 May 2004
By bader40 (Rossendale UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Indecent Exposure (Paperback)
Let's cut to the chase, this book along with Riotous assembly are without doubt the funniest books i've ever read.
Unlike the other Sharpe books (which are nowhere as good i hasten to add) you will find that once you've started you cannot put them down.My wife,i'm sure, contemplated having me admitted under the mental health act, such were my outbursts of laughter.
Buy both these books, you will read them again and again.

5.0 out of 5 stars and again for your prediliction..., 21 Jun 2000
This review is from: Indecent Exposure (Paperback)
The memorable characters of Riotous Asembly return for another dose of Antipodean mayhem, and the joys of apartheid. this time the whole town gets the "treatment" as defined by Konstabel Els zealous actions. To sweeten the mixture this time a psychologist from Auschwitz or Belsen (take your pick) get's to practice her skills - professional and otherwise - upon Konstable Els who didn't get off QUITE so scott-free this time. No wonder the whites handed over the reins! "Vintage" Sharpe!

By D. abbott "vanduck" (uk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Indecent Exposure (Paperback)
this an extremely fun well written tom sharpe classic.will have you laughing out loud at the old south africa.and the old empire days.this might hinder some readers with the humour but the vivid story telling of mr sharpe this shouldn`t be to much of a problem.i found this book in the 80`s and have it loads of times since.with the start off in Riotous Assembly and the great shoot out this ties things up neatly.
it is great fun

Tom Sharpe at his very best. Lots of laughs and many explosive moments. To describe the plot would be to give away too much and spoil it for those who haven't read it yet, but... Read more
