Bubble by Anders de la Motte
2.0
I sort of enjoyed Bubble in much the same way I enjoy a leave your brain at the door, dumb blockbuster movie with someone like Bruce Willis and a load of explosions. The writing isn't great but it had me turning the pages.
But oh dear oh dear The plot is a mess, the writing dips to almost Dan Brown levels of bad, Rebecca continues to be 'a male character with tits'. HP has ludicrous abilities, he chain smokes (and it appears it's important to know they are Marlboros) eats bad food (mostly gorby pies it seems), and he slobs about playing computer games and wanking. However when called for can run at incredible speed for long periods of time. When I smoked I could hardly run for a bus. He also appears to be immortal I thought the Kergan would show up and lop off his head
The 'twists' were signposted and obvious and ultimately not very satisfying.
