5.0 out of 5 stars
A happy reading experience!
This book is a compilation of several short stories about a very clever and devious group of gentlemen who set wrong things right! Each man has the name of an animal (hence the title "Zoo Gang") Each short story is cleverly written with amazing solutions to making things right for people who have been taken advantage of. It's an amazing read!

The plots are great, but the writing is clunky and the dialogue uninspired. A fun read, but not something you should put a lot of trouble into getting hold of. Watch the TV show instead (available on region 1 dvd at amazon.co.uk)
