Review:
Wickedly funny (Waterstone's Books Quarterly)
Christopher Moore is a very sick man, in the very best sense of the word (Carl Hiaasen,)
Humour that seamlessly blends lunacy with larceny ... habit forming zaniness (USA Today)
Moore is endlessly inventive ... This cetacean picaresque is no fluke - it is a sure winner (Publishers Weekly)
