Anima Rising by Christopher MooreMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I normally love the satirical metaphoric, work of Moore. However, this one is much darker, and not as amusing as his norm. Perhaps it was the subject matter that is darker( sexual abuse, or just how everything is presented...As always, his characters are very strong and interesting, but the storyline just wavers back and forth. Forth and while you get the Frankenstein ark, there's a lot that seems out of place (AKA the dog deaths) that makes one wonder if the author was bored and added something in to make it sound more exciting but really just threw off the story. Not my favorite of his books by a long shot and giving it three stars is really just based on the characters. Otherwise it would be more like a 2 to if you're a fan of the authors, you'll want to read it, but for those new to his works, I would skip and move to one of his earlier books.
