It's been a long time since I have read a book that I've had trouble putting down, but "Cauldron" fits that category. Pretty much from the first page, you are taken, well, actually, you are figuratively grabbed by the collar and dragged along, on a raucous, action filled, sometimes hilarious adventure that never seems to stop to take a breath (a bit like the zombies actually).
Colin has a great writing style that lets you own imagination fill in the blanks. No overly flowery language or descriptive lectures that interrupt the flow of the story, but just enough to lend atmosphere and excitement that keeps you saying "Oh, just ONE more page before I go to bed" that results in another three chapters going by before you know it.
This book has plenty of loveable characters (yes, even some of the Nazi ones are eerily charming), plot twists, action and bad jokes (kudos to Colin for turning "Bucks Fizz" and "Flock of Seagulls" into actual utterances of profanity) for me to say - "Just go and buy a copy and read it".
WARNING: Do not read if you are on a camping holiday in the Australian outback near a mysterious looking 'hill'.
As another reviewer has said, it is probably just quirky enough to become a cult classic. I can see Simon Pegg and Nick Frost buying the movie rights to this. ;-)

A good read. Just the thing for travelling (especially if you're in the outback camping)! :)

If you take your humour bone dry with a side of the supernatural, you'll love this.
