Pryce Does It Again,
This review is from: Last Tango in Aberystwyth (Paperback)
Pryce follows up his Aberystwyth debut with another tale of unbelievable weirdness. One gets the impression he thought the first book would be a stand-alone and its success prompted him to turn it into a series. Whatever the case, I'm glad he did. While the early pages of this book are spent explaining away the apocalyptic ending of the first, they do so in a way that blends in with the story. And again, the story--twisted, bizarre, unbelievable, involving Druid assassins and a porn star named Judy Juice--is not the point. Pryce continues chronicling, in the best noir detective fashion, the adventures of Louie Knight, Aberystwyth's only Private Eye, whose internal monologues reflect the absurdities of the real world with a comic and sometimes poignant edge.
Once again, be warned: the more you know about the Welsh and the Welsh culture, the more jokes you are going to get. |
