It is an exquisitely paced black comedy. It has clever and funny things to say. There was a rumour that Welsh's last novel, Porno was to be his last. You'll be glad it wasn't * Evening Standard *
Flickers with the dynamism, black humour and imaginative bravado that is Welsh at his best * Financial Times *
An outrageous and exhilarating foul-mouthed book * Sunday Times *
Vintage Welsh: Brilliant, graphic, with frequent forays into the grotesque * Sunday Tribune *
