The characters are lively, the plot moves along and the whole thing possesses heart and charm." - Adam Roberts, The Guardian The historical scenes are refreshingly unembarrassed by their hey-nonny-nonnyisms. Jokes are telegraphed (.) Even so, though it’s no comic classic, The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O.
