Amazon.com Review

Interested in emerging from your square shell to become a groovy swinger? Austin Powers has the handbook for you. This straightforward book, which was actually written by Michael McCullers (an insignificant detail), is the definitive guide to the International Man of Mysterydom. Tips on dressing like a swinger and the secrets of disguise, a field guide to Birds of the World (international women to you squares), and groovy cocktail recipes are just some of the invaluable information Powers imparts to future Men of Mystery and their cohorts. Throw in pointers on fighting evil, spotting men in drag, cheese, choppers (that's teeth to you) and purchasing private jets with suitably shaggy stewardesses. You'll soon realize that few guides offer so many necessary life tips. So if you fear you'll be forever square, don't have a thrombo, let Austin Powers lead you straight into groovy land of swingerdom. Baby! --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Product Description

Motion picture will star Mike Myers, Elizabeth Hurley, Christian Slater, and Rob Lowe. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's the best ever., May 18, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Austin Powers: How to Be an International Man of Mystery (Paperback)

I found this book very exiting, and also very humorous to read. I highly suggest it to anyone who is a square and would like become a swinger. Also if you haven't had the time to see the movie yet, you really need to see that

5.0 out of 5 stars The best movie I have ever seen by far., May 13, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Austin Powers: How to Be an International Man of Mystery (Paperback)

The funniest movie I have ever seen. Mike Myers is brilliant playing Austin Powers but just does even better as Dr Evil. It was totally "Shagadelic baby yeah". A must for everyone.
