Ok, who pissed of the dragons then? Now I know why
this summer has been so pants.
This is an entertaining and supremely silly book full
of jokes and madcap adventures and is worth a look if you want some cheering up
on a wet summer’s day.
‘There are very many reasons why British summers are either non-existant
or, alternatively, held on a Thursday. Many of these reasons are either
scientific, mad, or both – but all of them are wrong, especially the scientific
ones. The real reason why it rains perpetually from January 1st to
December 31st (incl.) is, of course, irritable Chinese water
dragons.
Karen is one such legendary creature. Ancient, noble,
near-indestructible and, for a number of wildly improbable reasons, working as
an estate-agent, Karen is irritable quite a lot of the time. Hence Wimbledon.
She becomes positively incensed, however, when she discovers that her father,
the Adjutant General to the Dragon King of the North-west, has been kidnapped
by a mob of livid weathermen.’
