Donkeys Kill More People

Ed Quinn

What takes you from writing about the eating and spending habits of Americans to how people survive plane crashes?

Tom Butler takes such a journey.


Tom is a journalist who is not content with his life.

A late night drink with a barfly in Chicago leads to Tom journeying across oceans to meet up with survivors of plane crashes.

In between journeys we encounter Tom's thoughts on life, love and langoustines as he meets the survivors and each of their stories has an impact on Tom.

A look at the human psyche and behaviour told in an unconventional way.

Hi Gerry, Gerry...yours is the first book in a long time that i have managed to read. Been incredibly busy. I started off as usual with your synopsis. I like the concept but feel that it needs to sell itself more. Minor changes are needed such as 'But (as) she grows up, (she) wins a beauty con... view book

'Even when he won a luxury hamper..' Great line. I think the words luxury hamper always bring a smile to my face, even though it might be filled with jellied fruit. I would change the adverbs 'calmly' 'casually' 'blushed slightly' ...there has been much discussion on the forums about the use of a... view book

Hi Vaughn, Enjoyable read that had me hooked from the start. Be careful of using commas after but...no need. I would also remove the mention of 'redistributing' chapter 2...just call the new 3 ..2.; we all edit here but it sounds as if you are not as organised and leaves the reader wondering what... view book
