Stuffed with riotous and hilarious tales . . . never less than
entertaining and in some parts, as in his relationship with Peter
O'Toole, even quietly revelatory. * Daily Express *
Fizzing entertainment * Saga *
A hoot * Scotsman *
Absolute Pandemonium is exactly what you would expect only
louder, taller and bigger and more so . . . pleasingly bonkers and
bloody entertaining. -- Viv Groskop * Observer *
The pages of Absolute Pandemonium reverberate with the sound
of that inimitable voice and his appetite for life. -- Andy Miller
* Sunday Express *
The beauty about actor, adventurer and Everest climber Brian
Blessed's uproarious memoir is that his huge voice leaps out at you
from every page. * Belfast Telegraph *
He bursts onto the page and then roars through his experiences.
It's very funny. * The Stage *
