The Moose Paradox by Antti Tuomainen
4.0
The second book in the Rabbit Factor trilogy, The Moose Paradox is another successful dark crime comedy that somehow makes a mathematician running an adventure park both tense and funny. But I'd recommend starting with book one!
It begins when a somewhat unwelcome surprise from the past turns up, triggering a slow burn of upset that puts Henri and the park into peril.
Henri has another problem, too. He desperately wants to buy a 'Moose Chute' to keep his young clientele happy, but its makers - Toy of Finland - will not sell it. Why ever not?
As the series goes on, I am really enjoying the cast of characters who inhabit the park, and I like the romance between Henri and his enigmatic artist friend too. The crime capers work for me too - though occasionally I am surprised at how easily Henri copes with some of the decisions he has to make.
Not quite as strong as the first book in this series, but very close.
