A good story and a fun read. I recommend it to many of my friends

Absolutely delightful and surprisingly hilarious. If you enjoy dry humor you will love it. Has become one of my very favourite books for its wit and lighthearted pleasure. I cannot recommend it enough.

Hysterical premise and the plot was well thought out and prepared. Throughtout the story, the protagonist gets himself, and others, into, and remarkabley out of, all sorts of unbelievable tight squeezes that leave you scratching your head. Although funny, it starts to get a little long in the tooth as we go through another literally unbelievable period of Alan's life and it starts to border on the absurd. The narrator however does a great job reading the manuscript.

Very charming adventure. I loved all of the historical connections.

A fun adventure!

My kids professor assigned this book, so I bought it for her. Not a book I would have bought otherwise, but turns out it was one of the most entertaining stories I've ever read.

Really fun and enjoyable. The narrator is fantastic.
