Maurice has just killed a dragon with a breadknife. And had his destiny foretold...and had his true love spirited away. That's precisely the sort of stuff that'd bring out the latent heroism in anyone. Unfortunately, Maurice is pretty sure he hasn't got any latent heroism.

Meanwhile, a man wakes up in a jar in a different kind of pickle (figuratively speaking). He can't get out, of course, but neither can he remember his name, or what gravity is, or what those things on the ends on his legs are called...and every time he starts working it all out, someone makes him forget again. Forget everything. Only one thing might help him. The answer to the most baffling question of all. When Is A Door Not A Door?

An absurdly witty novel of alternate universes and very unlikely heroes from one of Britain's best-loved comic writers - perfect for fans of Douglas Adams and Terry Pratchett

I love Tom Holt and have listened to loads of his books. This one started in a disjointed fashion and I struggled to get into it, replaying it several times. The story in places is blocky and lacks fluidity. The characters are flat and you never feel you know them. They don't come to life. Good narration, but I'm leaving Tom's tomes for a while before I revisit him.

Disappointing

Imagine a 4x4 driver whizzing into a carpark at their usual high speed. They collide with something solid and immovable, spilling their skinny latte all over their iPhone 6. This novel is even funnier than that.

Funnier than just about anything

It's the classic Tom Holt formula and as always it's fantastically funny. Well worth the credit.

Another fantastic book by Tom Holt

What did you like most about When It's a Jar?

Its a continuation of the You Space story and very Holt, especially how believable the paralel worlds are.

Would you recommend When It's a Jar to your friends? Why or why not?

Very Holt and full of believable twists but a bit complex, looses its way a little and misses the humour of other Holt work which I would recommend first.

What three words best describe Ray Sawyer’s voice?

Clear. Good characterization.

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

Discworld meets our world.

Any additional comments?

Glad I read it and a big Holt fan.
