Five Minute Fiction

So there's no easy way to dress this up, but this week's review does contain a spoiler that some of you might rather avoid. I'm reviewing the new novel from Louis deBernieres and while I try my bestest to keep off the grass (by which I mean "plot") this week I do stray onto the verge (by which I mean "give away a significant plot-point"). What can I say? I'm a fool. Read the book first then come back and hear my breathless, wide-eyed enthusicast when the spoiler won't ruin your experience. Or, if you weren't going to read it, then no worries. I only bought the eBook so for all I know they give away the bit I spoil on the very back cover. Who knows? Not me. Um. Anyhoo.
