Hilarious and acerbic as ever - ripe and outrageous material

Quite simply, the sharpest writer of fiction in Ireland today - and I'm talking totally

There's a razor sharp edge to Paul Howard's satire on modern Dublin

Un-focking-missable

Hilarious

'A complex meditation on the frailty of fact and perspective'

Outstanding

Jean Plaidy conveys the texture of various patches of the past with such rich complexity

Triumphantly good

The prospect of Jilly's return, with a novel set in the glamorous international art world and promising "oodles of bad behaviour, intrigue, passion, tears and laughter", will surely cheer all but the most misanthropic

There is enough plot for several novels here (enough sex for dozens), all vividly conveyed in the author's excitable style... Her many fans will not be disappointed

This modern day mythical fantasy is Anne Rice on an epic scale, a hugely imagined world. A chiller thriller from cold of Russia, this one's been selling like hot cakes around the world
