Well well well, looks like we got ourselves a booker.
Release the Albanian Oil riggers.
I just came here from watching one of your vids 😂 trippy
Rig rig rig
I'd pay good money to see ABK do a 'Every Twitch Game Streamer Ever' video, and try pull off an impersonation of @joshStrifeHayes. I mean, not much money, but it would be good money. Solid Albanian lekë
woah it's josh. all british people know each other, i knew it
@@AfferbeckBeats yes, he'd make a killing doing ringtones.
I'm buying Sooty Baumgartner (saying anything really)
As an Albanian Oil Rigger, this video was fantastic!
I thought that an Albanian Oil Rigger was some sort of new kind of Albanian Pyramid Scheme. They're good at it over there in Albanianland.
My bad. Me thought wrong.
Why does that sound like a super offensive racial slur?
Fucking oil riggers, the lot of them
I too am an Albanian oil rigger!
Wow are you finding lots of oil? What's it like in Albanialand today?!
Would I pay to have ABK do a range of questionable accents for me? Absolutely!
You need to play the Nelly Cootalot games. Especially the first one. In the second, there are voice actors, not just ABK doing all of the questionable accents.
Or even just 1 questionable accent.
(Norwegian)
Looks like a lodda fun..
@@ClockworkChainsaw Well thank you, they are on sale and even bundled. nice
I mean, aren’t we all just here for ABK’s range of questionable accents?
That and his golden locks

That’s why im curious to listen to the audiobook 😂
I’m definitely cleavererer than most children aged 8-12. See, I KNOW I can’t solve the mystery before the reveal.
Can I recommend Columbo?
"The Oracle at Delphi declared that I was the wisest of all. Wisest of ALL Greeks. She said that this was because I know that I know nothing."
- an over rated philosopher
You're cleverer than most children 8-12, or a cleaverer of most children 8-12? I got lost in the ambiguity
Most children shouldn't cleaver at all. In fact, I'd say that it's pretty irresponsible of the parents to even let them _pick up_ a cleaver.
@@bewilderbeestie
I don't know about that.
Child Ren should have been properly trained not just to cleave, but to properly hone the potential dark side that existed in him. Legends Luke taught people to cleave but only in self defense.
Moreover, saying Child Ren shouldn't have learned to cleave likely wouldn't have helped since Kylo Ren used the force to bring the ceiling down on Luke, not a lightsaber. Remember?
Every single character is illustrated with their SHOES ON inside the mansion, so obviously ABK lied to us about that.
Now the question remains WHY did he lie? What exactly does he have to hide?
Bunions?
ABK must have aquired the mansion and instituted a no-shoes policy subsequent to the events of the book
@@NameRealperson Glad the first two books sold so well. 😉
“These questions and more are addressed (but not answered) in this book!”-ABK, maybeK
It's really just your shoes. I'm sorry to tell you this.
As a guy named Gunnar Gunnarson, im so happy you made this book available to me and my countrymen. We don't know a lick of English, but we've all been so excited to read your books.
I googled what a "book" is and it sounds like an intriguing concept
It's a collection of story words wrote down on super thin sheets of wood.
I'm still confused, "book" is a verb. Am I to buy a reservation of some kind?
Careful it's inflammable and it can get infestations of all kind.
PS: it's no good to mop things up.
It's for nerds! Neeerrdd!
Ah thanks, I was googling "buc" and not really getting anywhere.
Just want to you to know that, as a bookseller, I am forever recommending your books to my younger customers and I've had some very good reviews back. I genuinely think they are wonderful - thank you for a number 3 😁
Thank you!
Public Broadcasting, the BBC and, now, British CHILDRENS books, have taught me rural England is THE deadliest place to visit.
Can't wait for your Mongomolibombom series to start appearing in other eastern countries
The Mongolianbomber series is gonna explode in popularity
The best red haired writer the UK has ever produced!
Well, MALE writer.
Lennie’s Poyums are better. And her hair is longer.
Wai, is ABK her mystery boytoy? Is THAT why he is never seen on screen? 😱🤯🤡
I'll let you off with your new book, but to mention Gunnar Gunnarsson without any intro or prior warning? GUNNAR GUNNARSSON?! You brought old memories back, unsolicited.
I'm an emotional wreck now... 🥴 🇳🇴
Yes, he definitely needs to release another in THAT series
I think the most charming part of this is that the book may allow Gunnar Gunnarsson to read the book to his son, Gunnar Gunnarssonson, so that they may form a closer familial bond and prevent the murder from ever happening.
@@whateverthing
Um, considering that Gunnarssonsson is already dead it's kind of difficult to accomplish.
Having said that - his grandson Gunnarssonssonsson still has his chance to make it. 🤔
@@susie9893 That place has over 7 people, so it wouldn't be difficult to find an interesting story to follow. 🤔
@@An_inquisitive_thinker well less with their high murder count. But there's always the mysterious and enigmatic detective sent from the city to solve the case (dun dun, ah la Dick Wolf) who turns out to be distant cousin Gunnar Gunnarsonsen, aka "Gun"
"...and adults who like to feel smarter than 8-12 year olds..." I barked laughter and scared the wife.
The nonchalant manner in which you referred to yourself as "ABK" is a boldness in of itself.
He might as well give himself a gang nickname while he’s at it!
"Montgomery Bonbon: Mystery at the Manor NOW"
Oh that's cute, your book is named like those pop music CDs.
That's What I Call Mystery! (Sharpest Stabs of Summer 2024)
Now that's what I call MURDER!
@@MallocArray
Now that’s what I call a murder taco!
So we have a dark and stormy night, a decrepit house, a murdered host, a guest list of suspects, a locked-room mystery, a diamond theft and the butler is a suspect? This might be my favourite Bonbon book yet!
@@lukacunningham342 it's just the kind of mystery a crack genius child detective can solve!
@@YourCapyPal_3DPipes1999
What about for just average child detectives who are addicted to crack?
@@timopper5488 They'll have to fight Lady Carstairs for it.

Oh my!
Are the list of suspects color coded with matching outerwear?

"What if Family Guy was worse."
An impossible achievement.
I think Family Guy already did that with their reboot. :)
No, Netflix adult animations exist.....alas :(
What if a cartoon said fart?
Giggety giggety!
Ever heard of daily w*re cartoons?
A range of questionable accents? If they were all good accents I might have passed up, but now it's a must-buy!
I love to feel cleverer than kids 8 to 12! It happens so rarely.
Just fyi, Gunnar Gunnarsson is an actor in Iceland. He has acted in several of Daði Freyrs music videos.
He is the man driving a tractor in Daði Freyr (Daði & Gagnamagnið) - 10 Years (Official Video) at approximately 3 minutes in.
Did you actually expect anyone to get your reference here, or were we supposed to go look up that video. Because I am lazy and I _maybe_ would have watched if you linked it, but there is no way I'm going to type "Daði Freyr (Daði & Gagnamagnið) - 10 Years (Official Video)" into Goojle. That's too much work.
Watch a music video and read a book? When did this channel become my full time job?
♥
If he narrates audiobooks, he now has the chance to do the funniest thing ever.
@@trublgrlUnfortunately UA-cam hates links in comments and often eats them
Really looking forward to your next video, "Every guy in a movie who does a thing." Sounds like it'll be hilarious.
Looking forward to your return to form in "Every UA-camr in an Advertisement for Their Own Book".
Interrupting your own ad with another ad for the same thing? Bold move Cotton, lets see how it plays out
Where I’m from, they call that “double dipping.“ And it is NOT encouraged.
Good idea about translating your book into Norwegian by the way, as reading it might take his mind off the murder of his son Gunnar Gunnarssonsson, even though he admitted that they weren't close 😂😂😂
Oh! I love feeling smarter than an 8-12 year old child! I scheduled my day around it until the restraining order happened. Maybe these books can fill that void.
I hope it gets translated to American.
Preordered a dozen Montgomery Bonbon books for all the boys on my Albanian oil rig. (they are actual boys, the company makes heavy use of Albanian child labor.)
I was wondering though, could we get them before the release? The accident rate is very high on our oil rig, and it is likely that not all the boys will survive before knowing how the series ends.
What delightful illustrations ❤
Claire is so talented.
Still waiting for the point and click adventure game version
Yeah like what tf is a bOoK?
"Every UA-camr who has written a book" video when
Well I’m glad Bonnie got her wish from the last book
Was her wish in the last book for there to be a third book?
@@timopper5488 No, for her to solve a murder in a mansion
plot twist- it was the British Museum with a gun.
Can I solve the mystery? Well, that depends. Does the manor have a butler?
Awwww... I was at least hoping it would be translated into ALBANIAN, so I could read it. I can't read English at all, you see. I just know the correct sequence of letters to type in order to cobble together this specific sentence.
Wait, are you suggesting that the doctor who diagnosed me with an infected monkey house might not have been legitimate? But Dr. Realdoctor had his own office and everything. Granted, his office was the dumpster behind an abandoned Arby's, but still.
At the rate we're going post Covid, that'll soon be all doctors' offices 😏
Best production values of ANY YT channel, hands down!
No surprise, that was much funnier than the typcial book advertisement ("... and adults who like to feel cleverer than children 8-12 really got me)
I loved it when the guy did the thing in 'Movie'.
A classic.
Yay! I will aquire them in Norwegian and read them to my children.
So will I
Shame they don't understand Norwegian
@@eternalfailure4081 That just makes the mystery even better!
@@eternalfailure4081 That will only make the mystery even greater!
If we learn to read down here in Australia, will this be comprehensible in our local dialect? Asking for an alternate dimension*.
* - it will have had been a painfully non-euclidean story. Please Don't Ask.
If your next video isn't titled "Every Guy in a Movie Who Does a Thing and What if Family Guy is Worse" we riot!
Don't be greedy - that's 2 separate videos, surely?
@@helenl3193 Possibly. Though I'd love to see how he combines them.
@aaronwhite1882 like 'Every guy in a movie who does a thing that makes family guy worse"? OK, I'm intrigued now too! :)
Love the call back to Gunner Gunnerson
While I would never say that I like to feel cleverer then a child aged 8-12...
Glad you clarified about the monkey house, I immediately started combing my mental Rolodex of British slang and euphemisms and was drawing (drawring?) a blank!
Joke's on you, ABK, I already imported the first two books to the USA to give to my friend's kid (after reading them myself). They were great, and I'm looking forward to the third one!
Now you can buy them again, with the word sweets changed to candy! And loo changed to toilet!
@@ABeckettKingAaaw, but where's the fun in that?!
This guy can't stop booking!
I am NOT going to stop showing off. Now if you excuse me, I have a book to order to feel smarter than a child aged 8-12.
Speaking as a smug prat who thinks I'm better than everyone else this sounds right up my alley.
Well, I too like to feel cleverer than an 8-12 year old.
You had me at questionable accents
I can't believe I waited an entire day before ordering this time.
I do like to feel cleverer than 8-12 year olds, and now that my niece has turned 8, I am often made to feel otherwise; so, lucky for me that my pre-order has already arrived!
Why that looks absolutely delightful. Unfortunately I'm afraid it's not for me as I know I'm not smarter than a child when it comes to these things, but I look forward to seeing how it turns out!
My shoes were already off.
Literally two days ago I turned to my husband and said "I wonder when the next Montgomery Bonbon book is coming out" and lo and behold, you heard my cry to the universe!
On an absolutely chaotic side note I recently was relistening to your Loreman podcast crossover episodes with The Midnight Library and feeling sad there were only three and hadn’t been any new ones in years when what should literally pop up in my feed the next day?!?! A new Collab episode! Made my week☺️
Congrats on the new book, it sounds amazing!
You had me at questionable accents.
ugh here's this guy just _doing_ book after book like it's nothing
I'm thrilled that your creation has been translated. It's a wonderful opportunity to experience your work in a new light.
I have devoured the first two books in English, but I am absolutely looking forward to immersing myself in Detective Montgory Bonbon's adventures in Scottish Gaelic! 😁
cool. perfect present for christmas. but I'm quite sure I'm gonna forget it until then. greetings from austria. ;-)
The trilogy most beloved by Albanian oil riggers!
Every tv sitcom talking pet.
I am a Norwegian librarian and I have of course bought the translated book to my feral library. I actually let Gunnar Gunnarson borrow it yesterday!
As a consultant monkeyologist, I can confirm the Monkey House is not an official name for a part of the human body.
However, yes, you knew there was going to be a ‘However’…, there is a small connective structure within the left atrium of the human heart which bears an uncanny resemblance to a member of the genus _Hylobates_ - which appears to be sitting within a covered dwelling. It is known informally as the Gibbon’s Gaff. Like when you see an image of Jesus or Keir Starmer in a slice of toast.
Congratulations on the international translations of your books!
How about, every guy in a book, does a thing? With, voice over, maybe even accompanying motion video? :O
I wish I was 12 again, then I'd definitely buy your new book. I hope it does well so you can spend more time making amusing UA-cam videos for taller people to chuckle over. 😀
The art looks super charming
This man is a genius & does a very good stand up show.
I should know as I attended one such show & it was contractually required to say as much ...
He even kindly provided me with an autograph on my ticket after the show, where I mumbled incoherently due to being exceptionally star-struck, & nothing to do with being an introvert...
I was then able to sell said ticket for exactly £100...
....less than I thought it would be worth, on ebay, where I got £4.67, including postage..
I would suggest, even though I have not read the books, that you purchase them immediately! That way you will have a decent supply of fire starting material, in case of emergency.
But you may of course read it too before hand, & possibly enjoy it, whilst also proving your intellectual superiority over a 12 year old...
..or not, I don't know. You may be thick as mince?.
So this is basically an ad on UA-cam you tricked me into watching without skipping, well done sir 😉
I can't wait for the next "every guy in a movie who does a thing"
How could you say no to that glorious hair? C'mon! Buy the book(s), guys!
Not on audible yet (I'm afraid I don't understand this whole "book" thing)
I'm also holding out for the many questionable accents
In the years I have been following you from Twitter, I have never once regretted it. You and your work are simply delightful.
I'm so happy it's out in India! Gonna go pick up a copy now
Crap, he's discovered the secret contract all Norwegians sign obliging us to buy anything that's translated into Norwegian before it is translated to Swedish or Danish. Now where's my wallet.
Yaay, I'm so excited! Can't wait to read it myself and then immediately read it a second time out loud to my mother while pausing to show her the illustrations! My accents can also be questionable...
I LOVED the first two books. I'll definitely be picking this one up soon.
Congratulations! I bought two copies of the first one. One for a kid I know, one for a local school
I've already ordered it from Modern Times in Newtown NSW.
Edit: and they just called me to say it has arrived in the shop, so I'll pick it up tomorrow!
😉
Gunnar Gunnarson has always been able to read your books as English is required curriculum in all Scandinavian countries anyway.
This sounds great, looking forward to the Dutch translation so we can share it with children here as well!
i am very excited to read this with my niece! we loved the first mystery
I'm an adult who likes to feel cleverer than 8-12 year olds! Finally a book for me. 😂
As an adult who likes to feel smarter than 8 to 12-year-olds, these books seem right up my alley! 😂
Really looking forward to reading these. I'll have to get both the ebook and the audible version because I can't choose between hearing you do all the voices or seeing all those amazing illustrations... (I'm really hoping the ebook has the illustrations)
I'm pretty sure it does!
@@ABeckettKing fantastic! They remind me a bit of Quentin Blake
ABK: announces new book
ABK: does not tell us that it's not out in the UK until Thursday
You cruel, cruel man.
I tried to preorder it in my country a few weeks ago but it was 20x the expected price... will definitely be trying again!
"It's coming out in places that used to be the UK. Places that invaded the UK. And that one place where kids have way more important things to worry about than new literature."
As a man not named Gunnar Gunnarsson iam delighted that i can tell a man named Gunnar Gunnarsson the news
I am in sweden and I listen to these books while I knit😂
I hope they're good company!
@@ABeckettKing They are, and the whimsical but oh so talented person reading the book is just excellent🤌🏼🤓😄
ABK doing questionable accents? Unconscionable!
I guess a video like this is the downside to having notifications turned on because the comedy sketches are generally enjoyable :P
In all seriousness though best of luck on the book sales
Buy it, it’s great. And the other two. I bought it for my daughter, but then I got the audiobook for me so she didn’t think I was skipping ahead without her 😅😊💎
Pffft. As if Family Guy could be worse.
But congratulations, ABK!!
I am an adult who'd like to feel cleverer than kids aged eight to twelve and approves of questionable accents. This is the ultimate ABK experience.
Nice! My niece loves these books. Pre-order ftw
I'll have you know I claim to love books and own many, many of which have bookmarks in them from that time I got 4 or 5 pages deep before the internet stopped acting up! I shall have to endeavor to own your book to add it to the illustrious collection of litterateur who's title pages I've glanced at!
Well dang, when I clicked on this, I thought (hoped) it was going to be another WHODIDIT episode!
But I feel compensated by the random Gunnar Gunnarsen name drop (The "many questionable accents" was just gravy).
Listening to ABK butcher the world's accents is like water to my soul
😅
If Fergus is "fake everything", then he propably is also fake dead. Mystery solved.
