Really enjoyable read
A little slow to get going and at times serious the book became an imaginative free for all towards the end.

All far too conveniently coincidental
Nicely / politely written and read but everything that happens just seems so conveniently coincidental to be truly believable. You can spot when Patrick has been itching to add a certain phrase or idiom that it just seems quite clunky. Characters not particularly rounded or 3 dimensional.
Not his best book.
