Review:

"The Clown Service is fun and rips along like the finest episode of the old Avengers series" The Independent on Sunday "I just couldn't put it down ... highly recommended" FantasyBookReview.co.uk "The Clown Service is a great beginning to what could become a classic series. Guy Adams has all his pieces in place, and ably demonstrates what he can do with them. If the dark gods of publishing -- and his audience -- so decree. ... one of my top three reads of the year" SFSite.com "it feels like Men in Black but a lot more British and sensibly funny" The Bookbag "This is the spy thriller that Douglas Adams never wrote ... it's hilarious and well worth your time" Starburst magazine
