Praise for 'The Case of the Missing Books': 'Cripplingly funny. Sansom ! enjoys himself with impossibly long sentences that leave you gasping for breath, largely because you've been laughing while you follow them. Do not drink a beverage, of any description, while reading 'The Case of the Missing Books.' You'll just end up spilling it.' Independent 'A satisfying and amusing read, and with a second book in 'The Mobile Library' series on its way, I'll happily climb on board again.' The Guardian Praise for 'Ring Road': 'A "Tristram Shandy" for our times ! The tone is part elegy, part satire, part howl and very, very funny. I laughed more times than I can remember over a novel for years !' Observer 'A wonderfully comic novel.' Daily Mail 'It reminds me most of Jerome K. Jerome ! Mellow, intelligent and very funny, a perfect antidote for melancholy.' Michael Moorcok, Guardian
