Call me crazy, but I loved this story. Yeah, it's kind of weird, but I've always had an off-beat sense of humor and I found it hilarious. I also thought the ending was perfect, and a good ending can make or break a book for me. I felt Jonathon was the perfect comedy hero, perplexed, bewildered and astonished by most of what goes on around him. Yet he always seemed to do the right thing at the right time, whether it was what he'd planned to do or not. I lost track of how many times I just burst out laughing while reading this, but my wife can tell you it was a LOT! Ha!Be aware that this story is based in London and I'll admit the British expressions sometimes stymied me, but with a touch of my finger my Kindle Paperwhite would tell me what the expressions meant, so don't let that discourage you. If you've ever liked the "Far Side" cartoons or off-beat humor then I bet you'll like this. I do recommend it.
I was drawn to this book because sometimes I like to read novels similar to the ones I write myself: books with humor and plenty of intelligent and witty dialogue. When I looked at a sample I liked its style, and the rest of the book didn't disappoint me.The characters are engaging and likable - even the bad guys are presented in a well-rounded way that keeps them from being two-dimensional nasties. For example, one ruffian is kind to his family and by all appearances a great father. That doesn't mean you like him, but you might as well enjoy being inside his head for entire chapters. And Lance, who is not a bad guy, seems like this suave ladies man, but we also see his vulnerable side, and he and the other male lead both show character growth as the story progresses. This book also features strong and/or witty female characters, something I don't feel I see enough of in novels.I have a few small critiques, so small that they didn't lessen my enjoyment of the book overall. We follow the various characters closely one at a time in each chapter. So we sort of hear their thoughts and feelings. Both Jonathon and Lance have witty thought processes, which is great, but I found these internal voices were almost the same voice. I would have liked to be able to tell their thought processes apart better. Also, we often hear only one side of phone conversations, like you would in a movie or TV show. But I don't think it works quite so well in a book when we are so close to the characters' internal thoughts as I mentioned above. If we hear and see everything as if we are in their heads, it seems like we should hear the other side of the conversation. But like I said, it didn't detract much from my reading pleasure. Perhaps the only reason I noticed these things is because I am a writer myself.Finally, the crime and the conspiracy that drive the action in the book is not very ambitious, but then again it has the allure of being unique - not your usual plot with elaborate government cover-ups, numerous explosions and double-crosses so that the characters never know who to trust. To me the characters and their interactions were the best part of the book, so I am fine with the less intense nature of the criminal goings-on. I will say no more about that so as not to give anything away.So if you like humor and a touch of adventure and romance, I recommend The Perpetual Astonishment of Jonathon Fairfax, and I will certainly give any future novels by this author a try.
If you like gore, serial killers, and suspense, even then you might like this book (which is nothing like that at all). It's a funny, gentle, sardonic story about people caught in a series of politics-motivated crimes (starting with an unusual murder in the first chapter), and involving naive and awkward Jonathon. He goes through life tripping over his feet (and over the murderer, described by his niece as a "gentle bear", and who is a thug for hire, but a really likeable one). Unexpected turns at each chapter, since the writer (and Jonathon's life) have no connection with reality. Thus, conversations are not sensible, and the book goes through a sequence of crimes (from big to petty) all committed in the most unexpected places. I like gore, serial killers and suspense, but nevertheless liked this story - a welcome change. I was attracted by the "british humor" advertisement, and it met these expectations.
When Christopher Shevlin sat down to write this book, the spirit of Douglas Adams sidled up next to him and said, "Here, let me help you." This book is probably - definitely - the funniest thing I have read since The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I seriously found myself rethinking whether or not I believed in reincarnation. I don't mean to say that Shevlin's work isn't original - it is. I mean this as the highest compliment I can think of. Christopher Shevlin's work is brilliant, snort-pop-out-the-nose funny, heart-warming and sweet, and I would need a thesaurus to keep describing it.The main character, Jonathon Fairfax, brings a whole new meaning to the term "reluctant hero." I loved him. He is the only character that I have ever read that has about as much of a low self esteem as I do. Seriously. This guy, I loved, and I want more of him in more stories. The writing was superb, even if the story might have lagged in some points.For some of my friends who are sensitive about such things, I will warn you that he does use some vulgar language (he manages to creatively use just about every bad word at least once, but not to the point of "too much" - though it comes close.) There are a few places where it is a little gross too, so just beware of that if you sensitive to such things. For instance, Shevlin gave me words to describe my next headache: one character's head hurt so bad that it made him feel like he wanted to "vomit (excrement) from his eyes." THAT perfectly describes what I feel like when I have a migraine. :-)But, If you love British humor, mystery stories, or just excellent, clever, writing you will love this book.I absolutely love this book, I love it with great big pink puffy hearts of love. I will be looking forward to Shevlin's next book.
