Despite the grim subject matter, set in a world frighteningly within touching distance. This is such a joyous book. There are two narrators. Reg, broken and alone except for his dog. And Lineker, the hyperactive sweary dog. The difference in tone between the two narrators really sets this book apart and kudos to Adrian Walker for getting the “thoughts of the dog” spot on (in my opinion). If, like me, you are the owner of a mad mutt you will love this book. If you hate swearing be warned.
