Nick Deverill Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 A jolly good read, and I've just spent a sunny afternoon indoors, reading it. By far the best story of the week. Link to comment
Chris James Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Yes, a very public welcome to Mihangel. An accomplished author from across the pond, he is certainly a scholar of the first order when it comes to the history of the British Isles. His stories are not light fare and should be read with a mind open to learning a good deal about the people and places which existed long before the words Olympics and London were used in the same sentence. I believe that Americans have a fascination with all things English, well beyond the typical Hollywood nonsense. To those who write, it is a souce of comfort to see the English language used so well, and Mihangel will not dissapoint. His past stories have led us through parish houses, boarding schools and across streets that tourists pay a fortune to visit. I look forward to finishing the latest offering: Kingdom Come Link to comment
Lugnutz Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I'm halfway thru it now. Fart gags. Genius. I like this story, and not for the gas passing. Link to comment
The Pecman Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Just read through the first couple of chapters, and I was very impressed. First class writing, Mihangel! (Though I'm still trying to figure out what "goggling" is.) You wacky Brits... Link to comment
Camy Posted August 20, 2012 Report Share Posted August 20, 2012 I thoroughly enjoyed Kingdom Come, so much so I read it in one sitting. I especially liked the surnames you gave your characters, though I'm afraid the villan's was a bit of a giveaway. ;) Peachy! Link to comment
Gee Whillickers Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 This was just a great read. I have to admit (SPOILER!!) I figured out both the whodunnit crook and the title pun by the second chapter. That didn't detract from the story at all, in fact I think it added to it. Excellent story! Link to comment
colinian Posted August 24, 2012 Report Share Posted August 24, 2012 Gee, I suspect you were frightened when told you had to go to the dentist, weren't you! Colin Link to comment
DesDownunder Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 At five years old, I took one look at the dentist and his surgery, turned and ran screaming into the street with my mother and grandmother in pursuit. It was, they informed me, very traumatic for everyone. At least now I know why I was frightened. I have to say this is one of the best stories I have read. I especially liked the use of the...and the analysis of the...is first rate, not to mention the sensitivity of the whole...along with the...of the human condition. I clapped with mirth and joy at many moments. I have to say, the opening paragraphs are not easy, but the rewards for persevering are many. Welcome Mihangel, and congratulations on your wonderfully talented writing. Classic classy story telling. I loved it. Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Wonderful writing. I wasn't as capable as Camy: I'm a fairly slow reader and it took me three readings. But I enjoyed each one tremendously. Wonderful scholarship went into this, which I often find from British authors. Well, done, sir, well done. C Link to comment
