"They said they'd make him a star if he gained weight. A lot of weight."

Bryan Mars was an Australian swimming legend and surf rescue hero brought down by over-eating. He blew it when he blew out, just before the Olympics. Then he disappeared.

Director Stirling Seagrave wants to make the movie of Bryan's life. Soap star Garvey Quinn agrees to put on weight for the role.
Stirling tells Garvey he will be able to lose the fat after the film is made. Garvey is not so sure, but his girlfriend tells him he owes it to his art to give it a go. And so the home deliveries of KFC begin.

Told in the voices of Bryan and Garvey, this is a poignant comedy about sport, film-making and what it's like to be fat. Really fat.

A bit of a 'boys' book' but very entertaining!

I gave this book to a friend on New Years Eve; hopefully he'll read and enjoy it before releasing it to continue its journey.
