"A revenge scheme goes hilariously awry in this zany if glib farce from Jonasson. [Sweet Sweet Revenge LTD is] a page turner." -- Publishers Weekly "In the first chapters of Sweet, Sweet Revenge Ltd there's enough plot for several novels. Jonas Jonasson, best known for The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared, is a wildly inventive writer, often funny, who stuffs his bonkers but entertaining story with art, politics and romance, and a tongue-in-cheek meditation on the philosophy of getting even. Great fun." -- The Times (London) "Jonas Jonasson creates hilarity out of brilliantly absurd plots, whether it is a 100-year-old man escaping through an old folk' home window, or a South African peasant girl who saves the King of Sweden. His latest unlikely hero is Kevin who is abandoned by his callous father on the Kenyan savannah in the expectation he will be eaten by lions.Add a crooked art dealer, a lazy Swedish policeman, an ophthalmologist whose wife ditched him for a urologist, and we are set for delicious Jonasson mayhem.


" -- Daily Express (London) "Uproariously funny." -- Shelf Awareness "A glorious romp which confirms Jonas Jonasson's status as the most brilliant comic novelist alive." -- Daily Mirror (UK) "[A] comedic epic." -- Los Angeles Daily News.
