Heroics for Beginners by John Moore is a silly little novel with clever twists and turns, some good humor and some rather adolescent inclusions of naughtiness. I would not recommend this for people with any hang-ups about sex or sexual practices (though those parts are few they seem to occur gratuitously and interrupt the flow of the story enough to be intrusive), and for that reason wouldn’t allow my kids to read it until they are at least 16.
It was a quick read (about 2 hours), so good for a lazy afternoon or waiting for planes, trains, kids at activities, or before going to sleep.
I would give this a single “good” rating.
