Booklore, June 30th, 2001
There are so many funny scenes it would take forever to list them all (well, 396 pages anyway).

CrossTalk Magazine, Summer 2001
Remarkably fast -paced... I haven’t read a book like it at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars An amazing novel from a debut author, 20 April 2001
By A Customer
'Broken eggshells' is the debut novel by Christian Cook. I bought a copy of the book on the recommendation of a friend and have not regretted it! For a debut novel this is amazing. Christian has developed a unique writing style which you would normally only expect from a seasoned author with many books under their belt.

Broken eggshells is written with a great deal of humour... in fact, make that a huge slab of humour. I laughed out loud at numerous points through the book. The Mafia's top accountant goes missing and simultaneously a group of disillusioned old school friends launch the world's most futile terrorist campaign, blowing up pointless, uninhabited wastelands and tiny villages in a demonstration to the world at how ridiculous it has become. The ensuing police investigation sweeps from North Pole penguins, Bulgarian drug connections, dead business men, tramps, mafia guns in antique shops and Russian Hit men!

There's never a dull moment, as the police unravel evidence of a huge worldwide scam...and try to pin down the mysterious terrorist group. Things don't always turn out to be quite what they seem!

I can wholeheartedly recommend this book. There's a great deal of subtlety and intrigue to unravel in the plot. It's one of those books that will keep you thinking long after you've finished reading it.
