Slightly expanding with a snippet from my review:

'I thought long and hard about whether to mention Bateman as my best attempt at giving you a mark for Brennan’s territory. Clearly I’ve failed. But that’s OK. The humour, intensity and sure pleasure of the read are reminiscent of the Bateman I’ve read and, as such, if you’ve enjoyed ‘I Predict A Riot’ and the like, this one’s definitely for you.


If you’re like me and you really love the cover, you can judge the pages within by what you see in that image (great job, Pulp Press).

Mr Brennan, I urge you to go forth and multiply (in the book sense). Please.'

It's great fun.

Thanks,

Just bought it from Amazon UK. ‘I Predict A Riot’ is one of my fave Bateman books, so that bodes well. I see he has 8 book listed on Amazon - have you read any others?
