Customer Reviews

Average, in a topic that doesn't allow you to be that
Finding it difficult to get McDonald books here, in hot ol' Lisbon, I was pretty anxious to read this one, though I'm kinda disapointed. The man (Niles) didn't succeed in writting a 'non-graphical' novel. Never in the book Niles, managed to describe the landscape, or even smaler environments of the stories. There are mainly only dialogs - some amusing, some cliched to the bones, however they're above average. He also manages, at times, describe with some success the decay presonality of the main charecter. However..., some of the stories are well concieved, some are almost plain trash. Approach carefully.
