Product Description

When the Queen Mum passed on, you all thought it ended there. Not so. Ascending to heaven and meeting up with the likes of Arthur Askey and Kurt Cobain was just the start of a new direction in her afterlife. God had a mission for her - to return to earth and fight crime and general wrong-doing. First, the mugger she persuades to go straight, then the supermodel off the rails who lands a lucrative sporran franchise. Then there's the biggie - global warming - but first she has to fight off an eager Mother Theresa for the case. This is a gentle, funny book, told in Harry Hill's inimitable comic style and illustrated with his own full-colour artwork.

Customer Reviews

Adventures of Queen Mum
I strongly disagree with the above review. It is not meant to be an interlectually challenging read. It is meant to be a fun, easy to read book that can be enjoyed by everyone.

I loved it.
I loved this book, although it's short and sweet. It wasn't laugh out loud funny like Flight from Deathrow, but the pictures are fantastic and the story is lovely. If only earth's problems could be solved so easily!

Truly awful.
I'm at a loss as how to best describe what is such a truly terrible book. I'm a great fan of Harry Hills 'TV Burp' and 'You've been Framed' has greatly improved since the addition of Mr Hill. But when it comes to writing 'funny' books, he should give it a miss. If this book had been written by anyone other than a 'known' comedian, it would never have got as far as a publisher, let alone a bookshop. The book can be read in five minutes, it's printed in the 'children's style' of a large (bad) drawing, and one sentence per page. The only downside is that not even children would find it funny, or indeed interesting.
If nothing else, it will no doubt inspire many prospective authors to get their finger out and finish writing the book they've been struggling over for the last decade, because if THIS can get published, in hardback, there's hope for us all.
