Book Review: Bongo Fury by Simon Maltman

Bongo Fury is a novella in two parts which follows Jimmy Black, a 42-year-old who runs a music shop in Bangor, Northern Ireland and is married with a son.

Bongo Fury is written in the first person, so Jimmy is telling his story which sees him end up in some hot water just by helping his friend try to fix his problems.

It tackles the issues of drugs which is and always has been a big problem in Bangor and it’s a story of friendship and family sticking by each other in the thick and thin.


The Bongo Fury books are interesting short stories and are a great set up for a bigger novel and one I would definitely read as Maltman has the knack of getting you interested in his characters.
