A Third Review for “Stoned”

You wait ages for a bus and then three come along in quick succession!

Good news, this is the first FIVE STAR RATING for “Stoned“, the sequel to “Baabaric“. From amazon.co.uk, here is said review (thank you wholeheartedly)…

“Stoned picks up from where Baabaric left off and while it isn’t essential to have read the first book first, it makes sense to do so. We follow Gordon and Mick once more as they deal with a new threat to Nether-Staining, this time stemming from earth as there appear to be plans afoot to merge their beloved Yorkshire with Lancashire (“the bastards”, as Gordon would say). The book deals with quite a few current world political themes, albeit set in a small Yorkshire village and in a comedic fashion. It’s written in a similarly light-hearted way to Baabaric with elements of Carry On-esque humour meeting Last of the Summer Wine (if you can remember that far back). The list of “heroes” has been expanded from Baabaric and the storyline is less linear meaning greater intrigue – and if you are thinking that it doesn’t sound very sci-fi, there are certainly sci-fi elements weaved in, though I’d say it’s primarily a comedy and I don’t want to write any spoilers here. I really enjoyed it and will definitely read it again in future, hopefully before a third entry in the series.”
