A hell of a good tale... November 11, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After Never the Bride and Something Borrowed, it looks like Magrs has finally found the real plot with Conjugal Rites. Not to say the previous two books were not five star stroies in their own right, but with the latest publication, he sinks right into the story, opening up with the return of the slick and smarmy Mr Danby and his strangely subversive radio phone in talk show. Also from the outset Mrs Claus is back in there and up to no good of course along with foolishly doomed lackey Harry the Cat. It's not until the anticipated return of Frank (eagerly by readers; with horrific trepidation by Brenda), to claim his eponymous rites that the plot thickens and quite literally descends into hell. Can hell be any worse than Whitby? Go ask one of Effie's dead aunts. Which one? Well by the end of the book you may know.
A hell of good yarn and one that promises much more for a whole string of sequels/new adventures. Who the hell is Mrs Claus anyway and will we see the return of Mumu Manchu?
GggglllllooooOOOOOooooopppp-ingly good fun!
