Tom Holt: Expecting Someone Taller (1990, Ace) 4 stars

Review of 'Expecting Someone Taller' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

People who are neither particularly driven/ambitious nor lazy and dormant are fascinating. Malcom Fisher, the protagonist of this novel is one such fascinating guy. One day due to some truly unexpected turn of events he finds himself in a very powerful position. His adventures is this humorous, mythological, satirical fantasy novel.

Luckily, the wikipedia link for this novel did not have the plot, so I ended up reading the book without knowing the climax. Although many a times I just wanted to know how it is going to end, I must say that I was not at all disappointed..

Why why why should the dynamics between Wotan and Valkriyes be very well written.
It made me introspect on certain aspects that I DID NOT find amusing.

Overall, a fun read.
