Synopsis

Bandits, Bank Robbers and Three Smoking Hot Bananas details the lives of a few miserable residents of a run-down town called Moan-and-Groan-upon-Sea. Albert lives a wretched life with his heinous wife and his dog, Spot. When he is cheated out of winning the lottery, he teams up with his useless nephews, Cal and Tag, to get revenge on those who have wronged him. Hilarity ensues as their shenanigans lead the trio down unexpected paths. Burgess’ style is somewhat reminiscent of Roald Dahl’s writing, in that it is witty, gritty and satirical. The author shows the characters in all their realistic glory, detailing their flaws as well as their more positive aspects, and children will be delighted at Burgess’ use of slapstick humour and his ‘all-guns-blazing’ approach to storytelling.

À propos de l'auteur

Steven A. Burgess was born in the steel town of Stocksbridge, South Yorkshire in the summer of 1961. The son of a wealthy businessman, he soon found himself living and attending school in the idyllic county of Cornwall; here, he went on to start writing Heroic Fantasy and Science Fiction, producing his first full blown Fantasy manuscript, The Song of Steel, at just fifteen years of age. Burgess has since continued with his passion for writing throughout his life. After attending university, Burgess embarked upon a career as a professional bodyguard.
