Twits on the Hunt: A Steampunk Distraction

The Twits Chronicles #5

by Tom Alan Robbins

"Oh dear, you’re going to be cross with me. You see, I may have... forged your signature just a teensy bit."

Cyril and Binky are in the soup again. They are forced to flee in Cheeseworth's land yacht, which becomes a seething cauldron of family and friends. Cyril decides to use this opportunity to go on a hunt for something he has long hungered for. Alas, their quest leads them into mortal danger! Can Bentley save them one more time?

"Tom Alan Robbins is mining gold with his Twits Chronicles, which soar above the "steampunk" label to heights of comic dialog that I would guess are rarely approached in the steampunk category. Come for the steampunk, if you must, but stay for the brilliant dialog and clever plotting!"

[Lori Alden Holuta]

Cyril and Binky are on the run! Well, if lounging around in a sumptuous land yacht, enjoying lush amenities, and suffering the crowding of the family and friends that have somehow joined them in this attempt to flee constitutes 'on the run'.

Regardless, Cyril tries to turn lemons into omelets, so to speak, by pursuing a lifelong dream. And so the land yacht trundles its way to the far north, where rumor has it a rare, extinct creature may still survive. And Cyril wants to find one.

Pile into the land yacht with the gang and hang on to your sanity! (Optional of course).

[Diana Holdridge]

Charming, although I rather think it should have been just one big delightful book instead of the novella format...

[Virginia LeBrun]

Cute, cute, cute! Cyril gets out of one mess and is right back into another... of course his best friend Binky is the major reason for the current mess. And "The Hunt" as well as its conclusion was very Twits-worthy.
