reading (Practical Demonkeeping)
Apr. 6th, 2006 06:32 pmI finished Christopher Moore's "Practical Demonkeeping" last night. To be honest I did nothing but read for the entire evening. I was going to go to bed early. But then... you know how it goes.
It's fun. With Christopher Moore that's kind of a redundant statement. Demonkeeping, like Moore's other works that I've read, mixes silliness and farce with some dark humor and a healthy dose of social commentary and satire. There is no central character here, be prepared to jump from person to person. Suspend your belief at the door, we don't need no stinkin' reality to dilute the farce.
If you've read any of Moore's books, you'll probably feel about the same way reading this one. If you haven't read any of his books, well, why not?
(oh, yes, did you notice the Demon book is number 13)
