Product Description

Review
"'Deadfolk was a fantastic debut and Fags and Lager is even better. Royston Blake is a truly original anti-hero' Mark Billingham 'Fags and Lager is yokel Tarantino... Roll on Mangel book three' Metro London 'There's a real depth to the characters... anyone famillar with small town life will appreciate the pitch-black sense of humour' Big Issue in the North (6/6/05) 'Blake is a dazzling creation of well-intentioned prejudice and overblown machismo, dripping with dramatic irony' BBC Online 'Fags and Lager is seriously funny... Anyone who's ever grown up and put up with rude boys, growlers and thugs in a crappy, rain-soaked market town in the middle of nowhere, will no doubt fall in love with this all-too-fictional nonfiction' Front"

Big Issue
'A sharp and bitingly funny novel that will go down well with fans of the TV series Shameless'

5.0 out of 5 stars Tales from Mangel delivers once again, 7 Jan 2007
By Mr. M. Smith "Matt, a reader" (Glasgow, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Ive read all 3 of Charlie Williams "Mangel Trilogy". The burb on the back suggests this is the last of the Roysten Blake offerings, I hope Mr Williams goes on to create another such anti-hero and world.

All 3 books are very strong, the protaganist, if you can call Blakey that, is an anti-hero of great proportions, theres a great depth to his shallowness!! King of the road like its predecessors is a well worked plot oozing with dark comedy, twist and turns and the great inhabitants of Mangel.

Give it a go, well worth it!!
