Reception
Critical reception for The Limpopo Academy of Private Detection has been mostly positive.[1][2][3] The Guardian's Philip Womack wrote, "It is all but impossible to criticise this novel; that would be like kicking a slightly senile labrador that always retrieves a ball when you throw it, whether you like it or not."[4]
