Pressestimmen
BLONDE BOMBSHELL is a clever, funny, tirelessly inventive, apocalyptic leg-hump of a book. Tom Holt may be the most imaginative satirist to land on our shores since Douglas Adams Christopher Moore
Kurzbeschreibung
A heart-warming tale of Armageddon from one of the funniest, most original voices in comic fiction today ...The third planet out from the star was blue, with green splodges. Dirt. Oh, the bomb thought. And then its courage, determination and nobility-of-spirit subroutines cut in, overriding everything else, adrenalizing its command functions and bypassing its cyberphrenetic nodes. Here goes, said the bomb to itself. Calibrate navigational pod. Engage primary thrusters. Ready auxiliary drive. It knew, in that moment, that its own doom was near; because it was giving itself orders, and it wasn't putting in any 'the's. That was what you did, apparently, when the moment came. You could also turn on a flashing red beacon and a siren, but mercifully these were optional. Oh #/$+! thought the bomb, and surged on towards Dirt like an avenging angel.

The dog ist man`s best friend - but nobody really asked him. On the planet Ostar, the dogs are the dominant species and men the pets. And all seems well. But then the "neighbors" on planet Earth get to noisy and the inhabitants of Ostar send an intelligent bomb to eradicate the problem - but the bomb gets to thinking about its task.
Star Wars, Star Trek, Dark Star and some other classic SF mixed toether to a quite original blend. Sometimes the jokes fall a little to thick -- but all in all I liked it.

Great humorous fantasy
6. Juni 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
What can you say about an author like Tom Holt?
His books are creative, odd, hilarious, and great reads, and Blonde Bombshell is no exception.
Blonde Bombshell takes place in the near future and revolves around computer genius Lucy Pavlov and intergalactic bomb, Mark Two (who takes a body and calls himself Mark Twain), and their efforts to stop the Ostar (an intergalactic race driven mad by the radio music signals humans sent through space) from blowing up Earth.
While at some points Blonde Bombshell is a little hard to follow, its off the wall humor more than makes up for it. Blonde Bombshell jokes about everything from corporate stooges, to the misuse of common expressions, to the idiocy of popular culture, hitting the mark on most of these jokes. But besides the humor, Holt demonstrates his ability as a talented writer in this novel, placing himself in the company of the irreverent Douglas Adams.
All in all readers should read Blonde Bombshell for the humor, and those that give this rip-roarious novel a chance will not be disappointed. An excellent read for fans of A. Lee Martinez, Christopher Moore, Terry Pratchett, and Douglas Adams, as this humorous fantasy novel provides exactly what it promises, a great summer read.

A Barking Good Time
20. Dezember 2010
Format:Taschenbuch
Tom Holt is rapidly becoming one of my favorite authors. He has the gift of envisioning an alternate world in great detail, and using its differences to illuminate our own. At the same time, he never falls into the sci-fi author trap of explaining how his Master Thesis(tm) actually really *would* work and finally show all those people who picked on him in grammar school what a smart guy he really is. No, Holt just delivers up hilarious punchline after hilarious punchline, while considering what it means to be human (by looking at us through the eyes of super-evolved canines). Douglas Adams and PG Wodehouse would be proud of the absurdities Holt has cooked up, and the excellent use to which he has put them.

Not just for sci-fi fans
6. Oktober 2010
Format:Taschenbuch|Von Amazon bestätigter Kauf
This is a very cleverly written and funny book and not just for science fiction lovers. Being a dog lover, I found the ending to be superb. It is a very quick read, I have been recommending it to anyone who will listen.
