If you love his series of books like I do (my son's middle name is Tristan) I'm not sure that I'd read this book. They kind of burst my bubble about some of the characters that I loved - (Trikki Wu and some of his clients were compilations of several dogs / persons) I was probably one of the only people in the world that took everything in the book literally. WAHHH I wanted to believe his stories just as I read them.
That being said - the book was very readible. So if you had already figured out that some of the timeframes and situations were manipulated for his series -- this book will leave you with a cozy feeling.
