Very different, A good read. The devil taking advantage of people. (

Yet again, residents of the Brentford triangle save the world!

I want to go to live in Brentford and drink at the Flying Swan - Such weird and wonderful things happen there! And who would have thought that allotments could be such exciting places? (

One of the all time great story tellers, Robert Rankin is on top form when telling this bizarre and twisted tale. I dont want to give any information about what happens in the book as Rankin slowly draws out every aspect of the story in a book that you can not put down. The small interludes in the story just add to the books depth and make you want to read more and more and more. (
