Robert Rankin is one of the great British eccentrics standing alongside Viv Stanshall Spike Milligan & Neil Innes amongst others. ' To call Rankin irreverent doesn't begin to describe just how very good he is at playing with the rules' says the MIRROR while THE DAILY EXPRESS says: ' Everybody should read at least one Robert Rankin in their life'
- & it's right. THE INDEPENDENT maintains: ' He is an author best read in large doses. His impressively individual style means that he becomes funnier the more you read him' THE OBSERVER admires ' the stark raving genius of Rankin.. .the plot comes together with alarming & deformed brilliance' & the MAIL ON SUNDAY claims ' Rankin does for England what Spike Milligan does for Irel&. There can be no higher praise'. MAXIM calls him ' Fiendishly clever & joyously funny.. .a brilliant imagination' & SFX think he's ' Oscar Wilde meets Kurt Vonnegut in the genetics lab of classic fantasy humour'. The newest opus from the Master of Far Fetched Fiction will enhance his reputation even further: it's time to stop Rankin being a hidden gem & make him the National Treasure his fans already believe him to be.
