The Hollow Chocolate Bunnies of the Apocalypse

Robert Rankin

Will teenage Jack and his faithful Eddie Bear find out who murdered Humpty Dumpty and Little Boy Blue? Of course they will, but as the crazy plot and inimitable dialogue spin ever more out of control who really cares? Just enjoy another amazing book from the (luckily) fertile pen of Robert Rankin.

Extract
'Well', said Miss Muffett, it would appear that you two have the perfect relationship.'
'We do,' the pair agreed.
'But,' said Miss Muffett, 'things are not always as they appear and after the commercial break that is coming right up, I'll be introducing several other guests: a clockwork fireman who claims that for the last three years he has been having a gay relationship with Garth, and two dollies who have borne his children. And if that isn't enough, we'll be bringing on a straw dog who insists that Chardonnay is, as he puts it, his bitch.'
