Blonde Bombshell by Tom Holt
A heart-warming tale of Armageddon from one of the funniest, most original voices in comic fiction today ...The third planet out from the star was blue, with green splodges. Dirt. Oh, the bomb thought. And then its courage, determination and nobility-of-spirit subroutines cut in, overriding everything else, adrenalizing its command functions and bypassing its cyberphrenetic nodes. Here goes, said the bomb to itself. Calibrate navigational pod. Engage primary thrusters. Ready auxiliary drive. It knew, in that moment, that its own doom was near; because it was giving itself orders, and it wasn't putting in any 'the's. That was what you did, apparently, when the moment came. You could also turn on a flashing red beacon and a siren, but mercifully these were optional. Oh #//+! thought the bomb, and surged on towards Dirt like an avenging angel.
BLONDE BOMBSHELL is a clever, funny, tirelessly inventive, apocalyptic leg-hump of a bookTom Holt may be the most imaginative satirist to land on our shores since Douglas Adams Christopher Moore A fast-paced, silly romp from a very clever author, with some genuinely laugh-out-loud moments News of the World One of the most ludicrously funny intergalactic shaggy dog stories ever told Daily Express A nifty comic read, fizzing with one-liners... enjoyably deranged SFX
Tom Holt's first book was published when he was just thirteen and, to his horror, he was hailed as an infant prodigy. While studying at Oxford, however, he discovered bar billiards and turned from poetry to comic fiction.
