Christopher Moore is probably my favorite author. I have read all of his books and have not been let down by any of them. His humor is unlike anyone else out there, and his creativity will take you places you never even came close to dreaming of. This story is about whales, stoners, scientists, and many more classic characters. Moore did his research. This isnt my favorite book of his, but since I love all his books and lend them out regularly I felt that purchasing a used copy to lend out was a good way to go. Seriously, check out Christopher Moore, he will leave you wanting more!
When I received it the book format was very nice and clean, pliable and light and easy to hold. I like the atmosphere that he creates for the Biologists on Maui, and the originality and quirkiness of the Whaley Boys..I read it a long time ago on my kindle and wanted a copy on my bookshelf along with some of his other favorite books that I have read. However, the book was switched on me a couple of times now and the first switch, I was angry for the pages were very dirty looking and yellow and the cover brittle, so I tore it up and threw it out, but still loved the cover artwork, so peiced it back together and only had a white cotton rope key lanyard to hold it together. It is back on my bookshelf now and only some great, funny, and profound passages are readable, now. I apologize for my temper tantrum but I was so disappointed by the switch and now it appears like my original book that I received. This always happens with everything I order, from food to clothing to books. Have a nice day! ivaRead full review

The first book I have read by Christopher Moore, and am planning to read many more! Extremely imaginative, well-researched, and great writing!! If you want a fun book that reads fast, this is for you!!
I am a big fan of Christopher Moore and finding his books are difficult in my areea so i went to ebay. If you are a fan of comedy writing then any of his books will have you rolling on the floor. the books are a great break from all the seriousness of life.
My 19 year old son is an avid reader and he asked for all the Christopher Moore books for Christmas. He's already read all the ones I was able to find!! He said they were his favorite presents!!!
Not as good as 'Lamb, The Gospel According to Biff' but one of his better works non the less. Very interesting with his usual twisted sense of humor. It's worth the read for sure.
