TAXTOPIA

I would never ever have believed that a book about accountants could be either compelling or funny but Taxtopia manages both, it is a terrifying and brilliant book. Packed with true stories, many of them hilarious, the Rebel Accountant takes the reader deep inside the accountancy profession’s often immoral banality. If you want to know how skewed the system is and how the rich always get richer and stay that way, while you don’t, then read this book. Then get angry. – Patrick Alley, Co-founder of Global Witness and author of Very Bad PeopleTaxtopia’s anonymous author has done the impossible - created a hilarious and deeply troubling expose about how the world’s shady tax system is exploited and proves what we always suspected - that our tax system is rigged against us. Read it and weep. – Geraint Anderson author of CITY BOYA shocking, enraging, sometimes hilarious exposé of a tax system that lives down to all our worst fears of further enriching the wealthy at the expense of the little guys. – Piers MorganVery funny (and furious)… By the end of the book you may be spluttering with rage at the injustice of it all. Page after page shows how the rich are exploiting loopholes to reduce their tax bill…. But this is not some crazed figure on the extreme left hoping to bring down the establishment. The book is written by an accountant who has spent his career coming up with the very tax avoidance schemes the super-wealthy use to evade the clutches of HMRC. * The Telegraph *Would I recommend the book? For readers of Spear’s, my answer is ‘yes, and it may also be worth going back over some of the more interesting ideas with your accountant * Spear’s *

The book is enormously readable … I would very much recommend reading Taxtopia because it’s the most hilarious book about tax I’ve ever read!
