Really GREAT! The first material of Christophy Moore's that Ive had the opportunity to enjoy, and it was worth it!
Fantastic. One of the funniest stories I've read/heard (Never laughed so much listening to a book on CD).
Think Shakespeare filtered through Monty Python....
Absolutely worth reading/listening to this story.

I like Christopher Moore's books but feel this one, although chocked full of his whit and satire, fell short of expectations. Interesting take on Lear but, while trying to be authentic, the English accent of the reader took a lot away from the story IMHO. My husband usually enjoys hopping in the car and listening to whatever I have in, but he had to insist on having it turned off while he was in the car. I had to push myself past disc 1 to get to the rest of the book but I made it.
What's better than a Christopher Moore book? A Christopher Moore AUDIOBOOK! Fool is the best version of King Leer I have ever heard! With the accents and jokes and tragedy, I could not wait to go on a long car ride and listen soem more! I listened ahead of my husband so I could hear it again! I could nto get enough. This is my absolute favorite Christopher Moore book! My husband cannot stop quoting the book with the accents! It is not exageration that this book has improved my life!
