Not as good as the first but still as funny when you get back into Allan Karlson's world of accidental antics.

I would like to give it a 3.5 stars but yeah, I'll just go with the 4 instead. The book was about the return of another misadventures of grandpa, or great grandpa and his pals, which he picked up along the way to wherever he might end up. Only this time, grandpa was possessed by a black tablet 😂
It was a fun read though the first book was funnier. But this one still make me chuckle along the way.

Als je het vergelijkt met het eerste boek (de 100-jarige man die uit het raam klom en verdween) dan valt dit boek erg tegen. Lang niet zo grappig en veel te politiek verhaal. Jammer...

The book tells of many real life people but at times can be slow to read at first. As the Book went on it got better with the adventures and became more easy to read.

I was happy to be back in this wild world. Being inside the head of many world leaders was humorous. Silly and fun.

as this follows the same structure as the first book, the antics of our centennial adventurer eventually became tedious; while there are still humourous moments that highlights the circus that is (modern) world politics, it unfortunately lost its appeal midway through
