The Ascent of Rum Doodle is a parody on mountaineers and as with all parodies there are people who love them and others who really don't see anything in them. I'm a bit in the middle of these two. The writing was over the top and there were lots of funny paragraphs - I just didn't laugh as much as I...
I enjoyed it. A bit of a one-joke idea but very well done. I laughed out loud at at least one point so that's got to be good.
This is one of those books that you have to be in exactly the right mood to appreciate. If you aren't, it reads like a second rate Monty Python sketch that goes on too long, if you are, it's absolutely hilarious.
