A work of Insanity and flair May 29, 2002
By Keith This book should be an inspiration to us all.It makes me wonder where Shakespeare went wrong. Who after all could argue, that "Macbeth" wouldn't have been dramatically improved with the addition of a few mexican guitarists? Where does "The Boy Attias" get his inspiration from? Well, "Bogg" lies somewhere between Pratchett and Adams, with the occasional detour via a world that most of us have never visited. It is an enormous great pile of steaming fun! It is a small warm cuddle of a book in a harsh world. READ IT and BUY IT in that order

A weird sense of humour not unlike Pratchett and Douglas Adams that had me laughing out loud. Take some bananas, throw in a very Mysterious Stranger, an ogre, a military dictator, a detective, a space cadet, aliens and a whole load more. Oh, forgot to mention the Mexican Guitarists...

Not really funny Apr 16, 2009
By Brunz Kloetenreisser This book is a good example of over-egging the pudding.

Another thing: Open endings may be all very well and a valid literary technique, but the ending to this book is all too open! I am not really suprised that this a POD publication - no publisher would take the risk of listing this, this ...
