This review is from: The Young Ones (Hardcover)

Having read this book,over and over and over,I have yet to find any mentions of Neil,Rik,Vyvian or Mike.But it does go on a lot about "Horace" and "Ethel"....perhaps they are previously unspoken of members of the Balovski Family? I am not so sure. And half way through,I was begining to wonder where Cliff Richard fits into the equation? (Luckily,his appearance on the final three pages,where he saves Horace and Ethyl from a herd of crazed rabid Aardvarks,by ensnaring them is "Craz-ee String™",is as exciting as anybook can get!)(Although his impromptu performance of "Devil Woman",afterwords,around the campfire with the Aborgine tribe,feels a bit out of place.). All in all a lovely read. I highly recommend you buy copies for all your friends,and several of your enemies.(Just to confuse them.)
