My 10 y/o son has had the worst time with reading. Each time we start a book, he fizzels out - or the book does. We are more than 1/2 way through and he is asking for more books by Docherty. THis book holds his interest like no other - Thank you Jimmy!

I am really enjoying this book, its gripping and interesting. Recommend it for anyone who likes a easy funny and enjoyable read.

Definitely 4/5 stars

Oh and the beginning is interesting as well, a teenage boy getting kicked in the 'goolies' (privates)(twice - ouch) by two older girls and then slapped by one of them as they try to mug him of his money.
