NOTES

Laugh-out-loud stories packed with gags, groans and great fun characters. From the off-beat and colourful imagination of internationally-acclaimed humorist Iain Pattison, this fifth instalment in the rib-tickling Quintessentially Quirky Tales comedy series is guaranteed to put a big smile on your face. In his latest collection of sharp-edged satire, silly send-ups and chuckle-filled pastiches, you'll be transported to a crazy world where an ancient wall-building "Make China Great Again" Emperor shares a surreal landscape with a monkey-plagued playwright, and a bumbling biblical family who want to turn the great flood into a crackpot business venture... Other delights include: An art expert views the portrait of Dorian Gray with unexpectedly humorous results. A wizard causes a stir trying to buy goblins at his local electrical store. Viking invaders posing as luxury cruise passengers spread monk-terrifying mayhem. A hassled business executive finds that trying to duplicate himself leads to clowning with clones. And a case of bad horticultural taste ignites an unholy dust-up in the Garden of Eden. Packed with laughter, unexpected twists and more than the occasional sigh-inducing pun, these slapstick stories are a must if you love Carry On films, Monty Python, sit-coms and fast-paced sketch shows.
