One of many many many book that I caught at the BCUK Unconvention in Birmingham on Saturday 17th. BCID problems meant it wasn't journalled straight away, but it's all been sorted now. Thanks Daemonwolf! It doesn't count, really it doesn't. I like Robert Ranking anyway, so I'm allowed to add his book that I havn't read to Mount tvr :)
A very entertaining story. Robert Rankin's in-jokes are getting more and more familiar (and I have to keep stopping myself from putting them in to conversations!). He has quite a disturbing imagination :) but that makes evey book new and original - like no other author I have read!
As I have had a couple of requests for this, I have turned it in to a mini-ring. Please bear with me on this, as it is my first attempt - but here goes!

Then back to me.
Here are the rules:
1. When you receive the book, make a journal entry so we all get the thrill of knowing where it's at...
2. PM the next person in line for their address.
3. Read the book, and make a journal entry to tell us what you thought.
4. Make release notes/a journal entry to say when the book is leaving your hands and who'll be catching it next, and pop it into the post!
Any problems, send me a private message!

Good read and funny story. Falls into the Douglas Adams/Neil Gaiman/Terry Pratchett genre whilst not quite being as good as those three, but I'll definitely pick up other books by this author if I happen across them.

This was fun to read. While I didn't find this as funny as the Diskworld books, it was an interesting story. A lot of the events that happened at the start of the book didn't seem to make sense until part way through, when what was happening was explained, although this might have been different if I'd read the back of the book first...
Will be on its way back to SandyUndead unless someone else has joined the ring.

Thanks for returning this to me yiremyahu - hopefully I will be releasing it at a new OBCZ when I go to uni if no-one else claims it first.
Just registering again.
Didn't get around to reading it.
