The Part About the Dragon Was (Mostly) True by Sean Gibson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
You know those times when you come back from a hard night of singing for your beer, having flashed a smile to melt not just your cohort's hearts, but whole drunken villages?
Yeah, me either, but Heloise does.
At least, that's what she keeps telling us.
This book is exactly what I needed.
Funny, smart, and enough made-up words like turdkey (complete with a full etymology) to keep me roaring with barely concealed snickers and a belly-full of bad puns... not to mention a desire to go back and watch some more Monty Python. :)
LOVE these zingers. It's like MP had a baby with JRRT but without all the endless fascination with food and alcohol.
OH. Wait. It IS endlessly fascinated with food and alcohol. And pronouns. Giants are sensitive, you know.
