Reviews

He writes with wit and penetration, and every page of Empire can be read with relaxed pleasure
*Spectator*

Paxman is witty, incisive, acerbic and opinionated . . . In short, he carries the whole thing off with panache bordering on effrontery

*Sunday Times*

A very engaging account...with a good sprinkling of jokes, funny nicknames and sexual references. Paxman makes some very sharp points and writes well
*Guardian*
