‘This is an brilliant book and very cleverly put together … The author has a great way of putting things across that made me gasp and wonder all the way through.’

Waterstones customer Nikki M has some very nice things to say about the Etymologicon on the Waterstones’ website – you can read what she said here.

Another Waterstones customer describes it as ‘a fabulous book. It’s interesting, educational and really very funny’ and once bookseller Henry Coningsby, from the Watford branch, gets over the fact that ‘etymologicon’ isn’t the easiest word to spell, or say (but where would be the fun be if it was, eh, Henry?) he loves it too and calls it ‘one of the books of the year. It is too enjoyable for words.’
