4.0 out of 5 stars
The strategy of revenge (but, what, no food?),
This review is from: Gentlemen and Players (Paperback)
This is a story of a very calculated, planned out and well-executed revenge. Joanne Harris once again shows real affection for her characters - even her less likeable ones are well defended - and her storytelling is as well-paced, unexpected, and surprising as usual, with a sting in its tail. But the magic (both literally and metaphorically) of many of her previous books is missing.What is also missing is the `foodie' twist, which is one of the things I enjoyed immensely in Harris' previous books. In summary, not one of her best, but still a good read.

4.0 out of 5 stars
The twists and turns of boarding school life,
By Lance Mitchell (Hampshire, UK, Northern Hemisphere, Planet Earth) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Gentlemen and Players (Paperback)
I thought this book was superb.Although I figured out the "twist in the tail of the tale" very early on, I really enjoyed it. There were so many reflections of my own school life in the book, that empathy was easy for me. The reason that I don't give it five stars is that I found that the pace dragged a bit at times, and I was almost screaming, "Get on with it!" Well worth reading. I would recommend it.
