A new-ish Tom Holt, which I got the other day. Pretty entertaining. I can’t help but feel that I am maybe getting over Holt a bit, which is sad – I enjoyed it, all right, and read it very quickly, but I didn’t quite get the same amusement out of it that I remember. Maybe I am getting too used to his quirky style, so I’m no longer surprised by the quirkiness of it. Anyway; I’m not too jaded yet, as I will still keep reading what he brings out.

It was an entertaining read – dragons being able to turn into humans (and goldfish) offer lots of potential, and he played with it. I quite like his outrageous use of being able to do anything, and the fact that he often doesn’t bother to explain it too much – or that he is perfectly happy to say that it was pure serendipity. Cheeky, is probably the best way to describe it.
