Review
'I loved the voice. I loved the dark streets. I love the story'
(Harlan Coben )
'Eoin Colfer . . . is hugely inventive and intelligent and an instinctive storyteller, who happens to write beautifully and elegantly as well'
(Michael Morpurgo )
'Colfer is an engaging and inventive writer with a strong sense of the rhythm of a story . . . always entertaining page by page'
(* Guardian * )
'This is Sopranos territory- where terrible deeds are mixed with the painful banalities of life in a way that brings laughter among the tears and gnaws at your heart. It's a fine debut'
(* Daily Mail * )
'This might lead you to think you're in Elmore Leonard, Carl Hiaasen or even Damon Runyon country, but you're not. Although there are echoes of all three writers in Plugged, Colfer's novel is dominated, driven and fully animated by a refreshingly original voice'
