A thoroughly delightful book. The narration has a very strong presence, so some may find it a bit too silly or flat-out annoying. It has its fun. Do not look for this book to take itself seriously, and you might be pleasantly surprised the one or two times it does. If you like Terry Pratchett, Dianna Wynne Jones, or the book version of The Princess Bride, this will likely work for you. Plenty of jokes about English literature, a strong anti-war message, and some sweet character moments. Although I completely disagree with the views on Jane Eyre expressed in this book XD
