Recenzii
Exhilarating return to form for the satirical Florida crime writer...a witty satire and a nail-biting thriller
His investigative journalist's eye for detail and his merciless, only-just exaggerated satire are a killer combination...wickedly funny
If you have never entered Hiaasen's world before, this is a wickedly funny place to start
Bright, breezy and hectic, Star Island wears its pessimism lightly. It is, in fact, a blast
This is Hiaasen back on top form and picking his targets with gleeful malice
Is there a funnier novelist on the planet than Carl Hiaasen? I hope not, because after nearly injuring myself reading his latest comic thriller I don't think my poor body could take it
Like a really good sandwich, made with a winningly simple recipe
'***** If you have never entered Hiaasen's world before, this is a wickedly funny place to start'
