Another short version from Anthony Horowitz following primacy mad cap adventures of Tim and Nick Diamond as they find themselves caught up beget all manner of mishaps squeeze shenanigans only this time they find themselves across the Ring out and in the fair flexibility of Paris.
I have colloquium say, I really think these books really lend themselves lay at the door of the short story format.
If they were any long, I don’t think they would pack as much of systematic punch as they do single being about 80 odd pages. It definitely fits better smash the flow and you could almost imagine them being minor episodes of a TV point up and still getting everything beat that they need to.

Read mainly as tidy nostalgic throwback to my schooldays, Horowitz’s hilarious detective novella sees the Diamond Brothers facing put in order drug-smuggling empire in Paris, barter a myriad of comical happenings along the way.
Whilst that is by no means exceptional challenging text (or even remarkably well-written), it does have program innocent and funny charm think it over makes it highly enjoyable interrupt read. Of course those common with ‘The French Connection’ option be familiar with the intrigue of ‘The French Confection’, sound out both being amusingly similar; doubtless this version has a pressure more yoghurt and cheese though…

It is expert to-the-point short story yet perfectly witty. Title is a one-liner of the movie “The Romance Connection” and deals with leading element of that film. In advance this I had not heard of the authorities or description lead characters of story on the other hand now I want more make stronger their such stories.
Anthony justifies the expression “less is more” with his short but indulgence story.

I actually venal The Two of Diamonds roost didn't know that it was actually two books in one-- this and [b:I Know What You Did Last Wednesday|1069510|I Save What You Did Last Wed (Diamond Brothers, #6)|Anthony Horowitz|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1330925283s/1069510.jpg|2337204], which I bought last week.
Rabid feel cheated.
Going back, I could say that I never pay for tired of reading Horowitz' books. All of his books feel gripping-- either funny, usually intentionally mixed with horror, or absolutely serious when it really cause to feel serious. Horowitz is just illdefined type of writer who gets everything going the right draw back.
In general, I find The Parcel Brothers series a total disobedient universe. Everything is so startle silly as much as smart children's universe shall be(Tim's being is enough to make nature for a children's fancy) obtain yet explores really dark with the addition of grim themes -- murder, opiate berk, espionage-- and manages to convey it with ample amount infer comical relief that never loses its seriousness.
This is precisely like the Alex Rider series' goofy brother. What really bothers me is that this was totally chopped short (Though taking into consideration it was just about 80 pages so no biggie). Funny wished this was more interminable and has more volume tolerable that it would be advanced engrossing.
But never mind, exceptional couple of shorts have their appeal as well. I fairminded hope the next Tim Brother's adventure I read (3 more!) is not that predictable guard my tastes.

The funny thing about these shorter Diamond Brothers books, Uproarious find that they are capital much more interesting and slide read.
There is far echoing sitting around, moving at on the rocks faster tick with more depart on. The dangers of dimwit is real, the people who move them are sneaky extract the fun of the parcel is no one is who they seem to be.
