No author makes me laugh out loud like Christopher Moore. I found this book to be no exception to his other great works. I also loved the illustrations included in the book! It was great to be able to see some of the works being talked about! Also, there is a chapter guide at www.sacrebleu.info that provides even more background and illustrations! And I couldn't help noticing the color of the ink in the book was blue. Very nice touch! | ||

The book is definitely Rated R/18+. There are lewd references to sex, prostitutes, etc., so if you're easily offended by those things, you may want to skip this one. | ||
