"When I was at school, Raymond Pettibon was one of my favourite artists. I'm not into comic books and I don't really like comic book artwork for records and some people probably would describe Raymond Pettibon in that style. And yet despite that, he just has something else. He has ideas. That particular picture on the cover of Goo was an image I was familiar with before I even knew who Sonic Youth were, which is probably a bit unusual. I came across it in one of his books. As a sixteen-year-old there were so many of his images, especially when those images included text, that really sparked off my thoughts. I found them really evocative. Sonic Youth are obviously a brilliant band but I only came to learn that a lot later."

a tale of greed and how to redeem yourself.
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

Hank takes his dream job as tour guide at a castle in Germany. But things quickly spiral into a nightmare as hank gets tangled up in a plot to steal some precious stones. Can he get himself out of it, alive?

I found this a quick read, some 132 pages, but quite a GOOD read. Not a great one though, but good enough to keep me fully engaged.

Hank loves history and getting the job at the castle is a dream come true. But very quickly, he finds himself in danger, from a man and a woman who claim they are stealing their birth right back. He finds himself pulled under by these people, and then dragged halfway across the world, and back again.

It takes time to get the full picture, helped by the fact that not only Hank has a say, but someone else too. I wanted a clearer picture of who that was, though, and I don't get it.

Some other things are a little fuzzy, but that might just be me.

A well written, well delivered tale, of greed and how to redeem yourself.

3 good solid stars.
