In Terry Pratchett's distinctive vernacular, "The Amazing Maurice" is a bit of a dreary tale, with a language so convoluted that it's hard for a nipper to make head or tail of it. It's not exactly a barrel of laughs either - the gags are buried under so many fancy words and byzantine sentence structures that my lad only managed a chortle twice over the course of the book's more than 200 pages. By the second half, I was yearning for it to be over so that I could sink my teeth into something more worthwhile.
