About this product
Product Information
When Guy Fletcher scoffs at a feeble joke he overhears in his local pub, he finds himself, in quick succession, head-butted and struck by an idea. Is it possible to trace a joke all the way back to its original source? Guy s meandering trail leads him to a Hungarian dentist, a hyperactive troop of Boy Scouts, a group of giggling grave-diggers, and a half-dozen undercover detectives. He s also sure that he s being followed by a sinister Englishman, Irishman, and Scotsman. He has an unfortunate encounter with a banana peel. And there s a fly in his soup. Guy is on the verge of discovering something very unpleasant. Making jokes is no laughing matter."

Reviews
'This is The Avengers on acid, a wonderful barrage of literalised jokes and surreal situations that defy logic while being, somehow, entirely credible. Horowitz is a born storyteller, and there are some fantastically staged sequences that leave you laughing out loud... THE KILLING JOKE is not only the funniest book I have read this year, it's also the most original., 'The move from humour to sinister goings-on is gripping in its originality, and is sure to place the book at the top of the year's black-comedy-thrillers.', 'Horowitz has crafted an excellent comic thriller which is a real delight to read. And it'll make you chuckle.', 'Only good writers can get away with stating the obvious, and Anthony Horowitz doesn't shy away from slippery banana skins or fly-in-the-soup gags...', "There is a new slew of comic writing out…and the best is The Killing Joke . In the playful manner of Jasper Fforde, the plot goes right to the heart of comedy. Great fun." - The Observer, 'It starts in a world of reason and normality, but draws the reader helter-skelter into an increasingly mad, mad world'
