Tom Bower has produced a book of compulsive readability whose authority is enhanced by conversations with Fayed and over 200 of his friends and enemies. The tormented and bizarre journey of the poor boy from Egypt who became the self-proclaimed King of Knightsbridge is a saga reminiscent of an epic Hollywood thriller and this explosive biography will not disappoint. The Evening Standard calls it "Amazing." The Spectator says the book is "… a brilliant account of one man's appalling life… Tom Bower has triumphantly told the truth about an awful man." The Observer calls it "A work of great power … a sinister and farcical story, ending with the death of Diana, which, had it been written as fiction would have been dismissed as fantastic and absurd."
