A new comedic fantasy novel from Tom Holt, one of the most entertaining and inventive voices in the genre.

  • "Extremely entertaining . . . . Holt's verbal acuity simply does not falter."
    Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) on The Management Style of the Supreme Beings
  • "This is a must-read for those who grew up in awe of The Phantom Tollbooth...Holt achieves near-perfection in his new comic fantasy."
    Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) on The Good, The Bad and The Smug
  • "Exceedingly clever and funny."
    RT Book Reviews on The Good, The Bad and The Smug
  • "Satisfying and entertaining."
    RT Book Reviews on The Outsorcerer's Apprentice
  • "Holt has a zany humor that will appeal to fans of Terry Pratchett and Christopher Moore."
    Library Journal on The Outsorcerer's Apprentice
  • "Tom Holt's Doughnut presents a roller-coaster ride through the world of physics and the origins of the universe."
    Library Journal on Doughnut
  • "Holt adds to his repertoire of comedic sf, one of the most difficult genre acts to master. Theo is an engaging hero; his brilliance is counteracted by his laziness and his compassion, which is matched by his sense of survival. Place this title alongside Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's Good Omens, Pratchett's "Discworld" series, and the absurdist works of mainstream authors such as John Barth and Gilbert Sorrentino."
    Library Journal (Starred Review) on Doughnut
  • "Blonde Bombshell is a clever, funny, tirelessly inventive, apocalyptic leg-hump of a book."
    Christopher Moore, New York Times bestselling author, on Blonde Bombshell

About the Author

Tom Holt was born in London in 1961. At Oxford he studied bar billiards, ancient Greek agriculture and the care and feeding of small, temperamental Japanese motorcycle engines interests which led him, perhaps inevitably, to qualify as a solicitor and emigrate to Somerset, where he specialized in death and taxes for seven years before going straight in 1995. He lives in Chard, Somerset, with his wife and daughter.
