Christopher Moore

[Caution]

Any fans out there? I h aven't read Fluke yet and someone told me he put out a book after that as well. I *love* his work. My personal favorite is The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove

1. I have recently discovered Christopher Moore

I read "Lamb" which was really great, and immediately after that I read "Fluke". He is laugh-out-loud funny.

[Caution]

3. If you liked those you really enjoy his other work too

The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove
Coyote Blue
Island of the Sequined Love Nun
Blood-Sucking Fiends
Practical Demonkeeping

In order of my favorites (you already mentioned Lamb and Fluke. I haven't read The Stupidest Angel yet.

10. Lamb is FUNNY!

Gave me a whole new perspective on the gospels...Damn now I'm gonna have to read it again...

[Pab Sungenis]

2. Pick up his new one...

..."The Stupidest Angel." Raziel, the Angel from "Lamb" visits Pine Cove and all hell breaks loose.

My personal favorite is "Bloodsucking Fiends: A Love Story." I want to write the screenplay of that book.

4. Moore is screamingly funny.

"The Stupidest Angel" is his latest and well worth the read.

If you like Moore, you'd probably also like Tim Dorsey. Start with "Orange Crush".

[Caution]

5. Love Tim Dorsey!

Have only read Florida Roadkill and Hammerhead Ranch Motel so far, I'll have to pick up his other stuff soon.

Another one you may all like is Bill Fitzhugh. Pest Control is absolutely hilarious.

7. 'Nother fan here

My favorite is the Island of the Sequined Love Nun. That man is seriously demented--in the best way.

9. I have Lamb in my TBR pile. Been so busy I haven't read in ages.

But this time of the year, I don't expect to get much reading in. I will on Dec. 26. I hear nothing but huge raves on Moore's work and am dying to get to it.

11. I am now reading "Practical Demonkeeping,"

which would be the fourth book of his I've read.
I love his work.
