Weird, wacky and wonderful !!
Another excellent collection of short stories from the author. He does not disappoint with his usual disturbing look at society (from a point of view lol)
Tam Dean Burn provides an excellent performance (again !!) and brings the author’s books to life.
Not for those of a weak disposition….but GGTTH

More Welsh Magic
If you are a fan of Irvine Welsh, this is a must for you. Short stories, each more wild and mental than the next. Tam Dean Burn brings the stories to life with passion and great performance as always.

Not the best / Awkward narration
Usually a big fan of both Welsh and T D Burn but this was a set of stories to make you wince with some awkward iffy narration at times (especially the accents)

Great!
Some strange stories but Irvine Welsh is always great. Sick and humorous at the same time. Never fails to make me laugh.

Amazing
Can't beat Welsh and Burn combo.
Hope they redo the others and not the abridged versions.

Far too disturbing for me.
Too much. I found it disturbing rather than entertaining. couldn't finish listening so deleted before the end of second story.

An imitation of his better work
Amateurish writing, minimal character depth and vulgar. The first story is shambolic, second, tries to be different. I was shocked because I love Irvine Welsh and this is an effort that, other than the third story that is timidly entertaining is designed to shock. The only shock is how poorly it is constructed. Read Skagboys or any other Welch novel
