4.0 out of 5 stars Revenge isn't always sweet ... but do read this novel! , 15 Jun 2006
Note: `Revenge' is the same novel as `The Stars' Tennis Balls' re-titled for the American market

You can't go wrong with Fry's novels: his plots are unpredictable, his writing style is witty, intelligent and captivating, and his (dark) humour is ever-present ... what more could you ask for?

4.0 out of 5 stars The Stars Tennis Ball's by Another Name, 23 April 2003
By Lovborg (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
...and that's the extent of the review, really.
Perhaps it was dim of me, but as a long-time fan of Mr. Fry's work, I got all hot under the collar at the idea of a new novel from him. In fact, it is a re-titled (for the American market) edition of "The Stars' Tennis Balls": which is good, but not great and you can find heavily reviewed on this site elsewhere. God bless.

5.0 out of 5 stars Magnificent revenge novel, 1 Sep 2007
By Ray Blake (Hemel Hempstead, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
As others have noted, this is the same book as 'The Stars' Tennis Balls', so don't buy them both.

This is a touching novel, part old-fashioned revenge fable, part thriller, part psychological drama. Stephen Fry always manages to create characters worth investing in, and here the triumphs and tragedies are particularly keenly felt.
