The Brentford Chainstore Massacre

  • Author: Robert Rankin
  • Publisher: Corgi (An imprint of Transworld Publishers)
  • Classification:

Jim Pooley and John Omally are good friends, in-fact they’re best friends. And as everyone keeps telling them, they’re unique…

John has come up with an outstandingly good idea. Why not hold the Millennium celebrations two years early to avoid the rush? This would give them complete access to all the government grants and they can sit back and earn huge salaries as Directors. Unless, of course, something really bad where to happen.

Meanwhile, a genetic scientist Dr. Steven Malone has had a really bad idea, you might even say, an idea that was bad on an apocalyptic scale. Why not bring Jesus back to life using DNA from the Turin Shroud? This would give him the knowledge of God!

What follows is nothing short of hilarious. Rankin uses a good mixture of clever humor, imaginative writting and naff jokes to bring this incredibly funny story to life.

Read it and become a Rankin Disciple.
