Bloody Scotland-Brilliant Reading and Illustrations!, 23 Jun 2004

By	Amazon Reviewer - See all my reviews

A brilliant book from a brilliant man, yet again. This time a 'Special'about Bloody Scotland! When I met Terry, at a book signing event, he was just as funny in the flesh! He confided to me, that THEY (The Scots, presumably!) tried to sue over this particular title!
To this day I still don't know whether he was pulling my leg or not!
The History of Scotland as you want to read it!
We'd say this is excellent reading for both children and adults, Scottish or otherwise!

Brilliant (stabbity-stab) Through and Through!!!, 6 Jul 2002

By A Customer

If you want to know the gory side of Scottish History - this is the book for you. Martin Brown's illustrations are also bloody brilliant and had me and my whole family in stitches. These books are great if you want to impress awkward types such as relatives with amazing (gob-stopping) facts. Top marks for Terry Deary again...Go to the top of the class!

A very good and interesting read, 5 Dec 1999

By A Customer

By far Terry Deary's best book. The book gave an interesting and educational look at the past of Scotland as well as being very funny. Well worth reading!!

Great read-a must!
I thought I knew a lot about Scottish history, but I had no idea about even an eighth of the stuff Terry Deary put into the book. Read more

Very good for children but not adults.
I felt the book went about pretty well describing the horrible history of Scotland with dignity and humour
