Meld je aan bij LibraryThing om erachter te komen of je dit boek goed zult vinden. Op dit moment geen Discussie gesprekken over dit boek. As the blurb on the cover says, "The Da Vinci Code gets the punk rock treatment". Our unlikely heroes are Rat Scabies, formerly a drummer with a '70s punk band, and a mediocre free-lance music journalist. When Rat is reminded of an incident where he set fire to his drums, caused a riot, and sparked fighting in the car park for hours, he replies, "Sorry, mate, you're gonna have to give me something more. There were loads of gigs like that." A cast of characters includes Mad Dog (an antiquarian bookseller who was formerly a guitarist and got his name because he used to be "a complete animal" when it came to substances, "whether alcoholic or narcotic, whether swallowable or snortable"), Atomic Joe (suspected of being a CIA agent) and a French cheese van. An amusing satire on the search for the Holy Grail which, we are reminded, King Arthur, Adolf Hitler and Monty Python all failed to find. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The legend of the Holy Grail is far from unknown, but this is the first time the quest has been given the punk rock treatment. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

It's a good travelogue and while they don't find anything earth shattering I found it a pleasant enough read. ( )
