EL POYO LOCO
Highly Recommended!
I am just going to come out and say it... I couldn't decide which would win my "Subtlety of the Collection Award" for this book: "Charlie Sheen is a Cylon" or "Storm, J." - so I declared it a tie. As I have stated repededly, this attention to detail is what keeps me coming back for more. It is incing on the cake, where the cake is perfect writing and ideal art.
Again, FANTASTIC work. This collection continues the ongoing saga of our favorite "detective-turned-agent-turned-hero-anti-hero", Tony Chu as he tastes his way to Justice!
This time he has to deal with the flaming cliffhanger, government conspiracy, covert USDA approved missions, an overfed voresoph, Area-51 weirdness, religious nut jobs, family issues and the actions of his arch-nemisis, fellow-cibopath, Mason Savoy... It is a true buffet of a issues sure to please even the most picky eater.
I am not sure why I am continually surprised with how well "put together" this story is. Here we are on the fourth volume and we have intelligently placed call-backs to content from the first volume. John and Rob have got their stuff together! Throughout the entire series we have had fantastic story guidance - prologues, epilogues, yule-logs, etc. - and what sharp wit is left out of the story we see in the dedications and personal notes from these geniuses. I cannot say enough. These books are MUST READS.
This book ends with yet another cliff-hanger. A real nail-biter. Olive it up to you to decide what is going to happen, but I am sure it will leave a pit in your stomach.
