An excellent book. Like it's main character it is an S.O.S. For humanity. Beautiful touches of humour and the rewriting of classic situations are well interwoven into the fabric of the pilgrimage that is the experience of any reading. There is much one can write about the novel, but this is not the forum. This novel is as as it is understated. In time it should become a classic of it's genre. Thank you. It has been an honour to experience.

This book is now on my top ten books of all time list. An engrossing read about loyalty, friendship, and the blindness of amnesia in a search for the truth. I was completely enthralled. Read it now!
