Standard early Moore fare. Strangely gripping story, difficult to put the book down, a handful of laughs and good wit abounds.

Probably my second favorite Moore book. Features a giant, lust-inducing sea creature named Steve. If you're not intrigued yet, we need to not be friends.

Attempts at humor in this book ranged from eye-rollingly sophomoric to old-black-blues-man racist caricature. I was expecting this book to be equal parts silly and absurd. I've heard good things about Moore generally as a writer, so I'll probably give one of his better known books a chance eventually, but this one was flat out terrible.
Packed full of humour and returning characters from the first book in the series. It's a fun book, if it is lacking one thing it is a high level of suspense. But it's not a mystery or a thriller, so that's fine.
