Praise for The Chairman's Toys...
“...takes the reader on a fast, furious, and often hilarious tour. Watching him zigzag through the twisting plot is pure pleasure.”
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“...definitely belongs on your short list of amiable stoner sleuths, along with Bart Schneider’s Augie Boyer and Hal Ackerman’s Harry Stein. The dark-comedy aspect of this debut will also appeal to fans of Chris Knopf, David Freed, and Tim Cockey.”
BOOKLIST
“Graham Reed’s first novel introduces us -- through his wry, urbane and witty writing style -- to Jake... such a beguiling character with a penchant for mayhem that we hope to see more of him.”
BOOKREPORTER
“Reed delivers an impressive debut in this book, featuring fast paced action, surprising plot twists... it cries out for a movie adaptation.”
VANCOUVER SUN
“This trip to Vancouver is fraught with uniquely individual characters, an appealingly lowbrow sleuth, and a black humor zigzag of a plot.”
CARNEGIE LIBRARY OF PITTSBURGH
“Set in Vancouver, this is the type of caper that will appeal to fans of Tim Dorsey... The Chairman's Toys is a fast-paced, non-stop caper featuring a cast of unconventional, offbeat characters.”
