The more posts I read on this forum, the more I think that this is a group of Chris Moore fans in the making. He is a popular writer, but I'm always amazed at how many people just don't know who he is.
For those of you who are in the dark, Chris Moore is a fiction writer whose stories border on the bizarre but, as far as I'm concerned, still accessible. He's written ten novels, including the absolutely side-splitting and heart-wrenching Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal, which isn't nearly as blasphemous as it sounds. (But then I might not be the greatest judge of such things for various reasons that aren't worth getting into at the moment. Also, I might be biased since Lamb is my favorite book, ever.)
He's also written Practical Demonkeeping; Coyote Blue; Bloodsucking Fiends; Island of the Sequined Love Nun; The Lust Lizard of Melancholy Cove; Fluke, or I Know Why the Winged Whale SIngs; The Stupidest Angel: A Heartwarming Tale of Christmas Terror; A Dirty Job; and his latest, You Suck: A Love Story, which is a sequel to Bloodsucking Fiends.
Here in The Frozen Tundra, it's rare to come across another, avid fan of Chris Moore, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to create a space in which old and new Moore fans alike could talk about his work.
If you haven't read any of his books, get thee to a library. If you have, feel free to drop comments here.
