He has created something with all the hallmarks of the craftsmanship that he extols, making Tigerman a sly commentary on authorship and genre; and perhaps more importantly, a fantasia both swashbuckling and glorious." (Times Literary Supplement)"Nick Harkaway's best novel yet, full of irrepressible adventure, practical vigilantism, an island murder mystery and some terrifyingly credible ideas including the seismic mash-up of chemical waste and unknown bacteria and the chilling no-man's land of the international of waters of the Fleet where anything goes.2015Format: Paperback I read "Tigerman" for my book group and it has rocketed straight into the list of my favourite books ever.I came to this book having never heard of Nick Harkaway and I finish it resolved to read the rest of his books.Hats off Nick HarkawayPublished 17 months ago by Beefy 5.0 out of 5 starsMarvellously, absurdly and inventively provocative Not sure this review can do justice to a novel that always had *such a lot* going on beneath the surfaceNow, as Mancreu’s small society tumbles into violence, the boy needs Lester to be more than just an observer.In the name of paternal love, Lester Ferris will do almost anythingIt’s a former British colony in legal limbo, soon to be destroyed because of its very special version of toxic pollution – a down-at-heel, mildly larcenous backwaterDispatched from and sold by Amazon
