I've read quite a few of Moore's books and this would have to be my least favorite. Still not a bad book but as much as I love Moore's humor, it felt a bit overboard in this book. It seemed like it was a constant one-liner. Of course, there were times that I chuckled but sadly, less than usual when it comes to his stories. There were some hilarious characters like the kid and the moon man but the main characters were overwhelming. The story... well, it seemed like there was a point to it but I kept finding myself drifting. Just ended up going along for the ride. Since I've already bought the 2nd book in the series, I'll continue. If I didn't have it on hand, I don't know if I would've.
