Reviews

Advance praise for How to Steal the Mona Lisa:

"In one senseMona Lisais long-form, silly comedy. In another its a considered, clear series of attacks on convention and the concept of value. ...a work of sublime absurdity."
--Library Journal

The perfect book for someone looking to pull off that seemingly impossible heist! The reconnaissance for seven world famous artifacts has been done for you, but the skills you will learn can be utilized in any high value caper. If the riches you will gain arent enough, the laughs you have along the way are going to be priceless.--Domenick Dicce, author of YOURE A VAMPIRE: THAT SUCKS! (A SURVIVAL GUIDE)

"An inspiring read." --Jeff Johnson, author of LUCKY SUPREME
