    About this audiobook

    Malcolm Thomas is not happy. The view he loves is about to be blocked by an ugly building. He decides to take action and forms a protest group. Then things go wrong and Malcolm finds himself running for his life. Along the way he gets mixed up with depressed town planners, violent gangsters and a kidnapped concert pianist. Malcolm starts to wonder if objecting to the building was such a good idea when he finds himself upside down with a gun in his mouth.

      Robert Asprin's Myth Adventures Series Is Joyous Dad-Joke Fantasy

      Aug 16, 2019

      Robert Asprin's rollicking Myth Adventures books get their laughs from whimsy, lightheartedness, buddy-movie banter, and, um, comic myth-understandings. They're a welcome antidote to grimmer series.

      While out walking his dog, Malcom discovers a notice posted to his dog Nigels favorite tree. It states that the heath and two house in the neighborhood will be demolished by the Council to build a four storey home with two basements. As head of the Highgrove Park Resident's Association, Malcolm proposes they submit a complaint to the Planning Department of Camden Counsil. This one complaint leads a suicidal planning department employee to drastic measures to keep his sanity and a crazy Russian gangster to threaten Malcolm's family.This was literally a "Quick Read", a series of books published to get people in the UK to read more. I found it on the Kindle site at Amazon. I enjoy Terry Jones work and decided to buy it. If you are looking for a fun book that takes about two hours or less to read I suggest you give it a try.
