Customer Reviews
Anniversary
With the exception of The Gospel of Judas and the practical value of the recipes in the last story this book is a complete vaste of money. Old stories with some little changes and without the depth, complexity and care to write something one can be proud of. It seems to me that the writers were offered a deal to write something short and for relatively good money and so they did write something however, with the attitude "this will do, it's not a novel". Even Elizabeth Buchan has let me down.
