Praise for Tintin: Herge & His Creation -- --- 'As biographies go, they don't come much more definitive than Harry Thompson's hugely enjoyable account of Tintin' -- James Delingpole, Sunday Telegraph 'Harry Thompson rings all the right bells...a joyous Tintinabulation' -- Piers Brendon, Mail on Sunday 'A major biography...witty and sympathetic' -- Jonathan Sale, Financial Times 'Thompson...is motivated by such admiration for Herge and such affection for Tintin that his pleasure is communicated. I am keen to reread Tintin in the light of what I know now' -- Nicholas Garland, Daily Telegraph 'A delightful portrait...well-organised and well researched...witty, fascinating and just a little mad...it is more or less impossible not to like this book' -- The European 'As a broad, bright Herge-like brush-stroke, it has genuine appeal' -- Guardian 'The first book in English on Tintin to have an idea in it' -- The Times 'An admirably organised double biography... For specialists and for the myriad devotees of the stories this book is a must' -- Frank Muir, Sunday Express 'Immensely detailed...it contains a great deal of fascinating information' -- GQ
