It’s tough to be a buffoon when the Age of Reason is trying to downsize your job. When the King’s Fool dies unexpectedly, a professional buffoon tries to move up the ranks and grab the top slot. But the politics involved in becoming a court jester are no laughing matter. The rules of becoming the top fool are simple: The winner is the one who performs the most outrageous act. Our buffoon and his fellows struggle for supremacy in a profession that is heading for extinction.

Ishmael Reed is a playwright, poet, and author of such groundbreaking novels as Mumbo Jumbo and Reckless Eyeballing as well as the best-selling Audible Original Malcolm and Me. Now the acclaimed writer returns to the form that introduced him to reading when he was a child: fairy tales.

Although the story was predictable it was interesting and easy to listen to, and enjoy.

Predictable but easy to listen to

I wasn’t expecting anything at all. I liked the title and the book was free, so thought “why not”. It was going to be a quick listen whilst I got ready for my day.

Some of the language surprised me. It was interesting hearing about court jesters and the 1700s alongside phrases such as “with your bad self”! It rather amused me actually.

A lot of great imagery and I could relate so much of it to today’s world. I’ve never read/listened to anything like this before. It was interesting, but I’m afraid the author and the reader lost me at the end of Part 1. I’m not too sure why, but I just couldn’t want to finish listening. As though I don’t care to know what happens next. A pity.

Adam Lazzare-White did a great job reading this book. I just lost interest. Perhaps I’ll come back to it another time.

I really wish it was longer but not in a please string it out kind of way!

Lovely story but short

It might be a good story. I couldn’t get through the first 5 minutes.
The narrator was horrid. It sounded like he was reading the book to a group of kids.

Ugh!
