When I set out to read this trilogy, I knew that I had read the first book many years ago, but was unsure about the others. However, although I could not recall any details of the books, there was a familiar air to all of them.
It occurred to me that this was historical fiction - but recent history in a time that I lived through. I enjoyed being reminded of a world which is now long past. The author’s notes were also very interesting to put the books in context.
Overall, the trilogy was a very enjoyable read, with just the right balance of humour and social comment.
