“A sprightly tale that finds two attorneys in medieval France matching wits over a triptych of unusual cases. . . . This medieval comedy smacks of Monty Python’s bawdy and mischievous sense of humor.” —Kirkus Reviews ""Dry, ironic, and filled with witty satire, the author has created a kind of mash-up between a Good Omens-style buddy comedy and a classic Monty Python’s Flying Circus skit.” —Seattle Book Review ""[An] amusing and clever book. It is the first book I have read by Spotte, but it will not be the last."" —The Fish Shelf ""Those wacky ecclesiastics of the Middle Ages and beyond, what were they thinking, putting rats and pigs on trial for alleged crimes against humanity?… A fascinating read, by turns amusing and provocative."" —Joe Amato, author, Samuel Taylor's Last Night “Threaded with unique and sardonic humor, full and powerful, ANIMAL WRONGS is an off-beat exploration of human nature.” —Ed Ricciuti, author, Bears in the Backyard High Praise for Previous Work by Stephen Spotte ""Spotte is a master storyteller.” —Library Journal “A particularly inviting read that stands out from the crowd.” —Midwest Book Review “Even somebody who doesn’t love historical fiction as much as I do could get on with it. . . Funny and approachable to read."" —Reviews Feed
