Summary
In TAXTOPIA a rogue accountant breaks ranks to share his journey from clueless naïf to skilled tax consultant -and in doing so blows the lid on the murky world of making the tax burdens of the ultra-wealthy disappear.
In the topsy-turvy world of tax avoidance, you can get richer by buying a yacht, the world's biggest exporter of coffee is Switzerland, and the Duke of Westminster pays less tax than you do.
Written with sharp wit and over-brimming with inside secrets, the anonymous author shows us that not only does the global tax system encourage dubious practice which favours the rich, but that it was specifically founded with that in mind.
If you suspect that tax is a rigged game, a con, designed to fleece the little guy, you are about to find out just how shockingly true that really is.
Welcome to TAXTOPIA.

Really really really good
Not what I expected, an accountant with a sense of humour. What a fantastic story. It made me laugh out loud a few times.

Fantastic
I thought this was a fantastic book. The author has made a somewhat "boring" topic fun and entertaining. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend to anyone who wants to know how the rich save money or how they can keep more money in their pocket.

Wow, just wow.
The author is fantastic. The narrator great. I absolutely loved it. I thought I was rich. I have become disabused of that notion. Hilarious. I now am having philosophical dialogues with myself. Woop. wooop. Buy the book! buy the book. Comedy it is. Never ever buying a Starbucks again!

Fascinating with superb narration
This does for tax law what Secret Barrister did for general law. Despite being a relatively dry topic the book is engaging and never boring, and the narrator is absolutely superb. Highly recommended

Five stars
I gave this book five stars. Dont let the title put you off!! It’s very informative and at times laugh out loud. I felt the author had a great sense of humour and the narrator was excellent for a change.

Brilliant!
Genuinely funny book with plenty of hilarious moments. The narrator was fantastic. Even if you don’t like or care about tax, this book is worth a listen.

A must read
Perhaps as I get older i am more aware of the corruption around the world and this book does not disappoint with even more scams and tax evasion uncovered, very well written

I want a signed copy!!!
Excellent view on tax and got to learn a lot of Tax information. Though it might have a risk of going out of date as Tax law changes every other year. Writer did an excellent Job pouring out the injustice that our tax system does.
