This book is chilling and hilarious by turns. Ronson's trademark laid-back attitude is a delight. * Independent * A funny and compulsively readable picaresque adventure through a paranoid shadow world. -- Louis Theroux * Guardian * A funny, superbly controlled account of Ronson's wanderings through the wonderland of fanaticism and delusion . . . The result is high comedy * New Statesman * Often entertaining, more often disturbing . . . Ronson has gotten closer to these people than any journalist I can think of * New York Times * The strength of Ronson's book is that it reminds us not only that extremists are weird but also that their fantasies take sustenance from the real world * Sunday Telegraph *
