Product Description
Product Description
In this, the sensational follow-up to 'The Book With No Name', those who miraculously survived the blood-soaked conclusion to the first novel are back in town for another massacre to remember. Young lovers Dante and Kacy, hapless bartender Sanchez, Peto the Hubal monk and the mysterious Jessica will each be drawn into the violent vortex surrounding the Bourbon Kid, the supernatural killer who is himself now being hunted. Hot on his heels are several vampire gangs, the US Secret Service, a couple of werewolves, some corrupt cops, and the Dark Lord himself, and none will rest until he is dead. But the Kid has vengeance of his own to wreak...Even more gripping, creepy, exciting and funny than its predecessor, 'The Eye of the Moon' is a relentless page-turner guaranteed to leave you on the edge of your seat. And, as the body count climbs on the dusty streets of Santa Mondega, who will be the last one standing?

The Eye of the Moon is every bit as violent and gripping as The Book With No Name was, but this is much funnier and believe it or not, probably more bloodthirsty!
The story jumps back and forth in time, although not to the point where it becomes confusing. The multiple storylines are here as before and with the backstory the author has also managed to bring back some of the best characters who didn't make it to the end of the last book.
The undoubted star of the show this time is the Bourbon Kid who gets much more time on the page. To reveal too much about the plot would spoil it, but the main theme is one of revenge, and extremely violent revenge it is too. There are many more twists in this installment, and many of the characters are not what (or who) they seem.
The stream of cliffhangers and short chapters carry the story along at a pretty fast pace until the crazy topsy turvy ending. Overall, an extremely easy read. Very funny and very nasty. In fact think "The Dark Knight" only with an even more messed up hero, and a much darker tone. Oh, and Sanchez who lightens proceedings with every one liner. Well recommended if you liked the last one.

The Eye Of The Moon is the RAWKING new sequel to The Book With No Name. Both these novels are rumored to have been written by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino and they certainly read like one of their movies!! This sequel doesn't disappoint and there is chaos and mayhem aplenty. If you loved The Book With No Name then you won't be disappointed in this second offering. You will though be disappointed in having to wait for a third installment! ;)

Once again The Bourbon Kid proves that he's capable of taking me along for the ride in the riotous sequel to The Book With No Name.
If you enjoyed the 1st book you'll love this one. With a fuller backstory on the Kid and the Ancient Egyptians behind the Eye this book feels more solid somehow than the original.
Even without the critical eclipse to guide the narrative to a conclusion, there's a familiar urgency and pace to it. Somewhat like the TV series 24 you're thrown between simultaneous scenarios building a well rounded picture of what every character is up to at any moment.
Funny, gorey and hectic, this is everything I expected and hoped for, but with the added benefit of feeling more deliberate and crafted than the 1st (without meaning to take anything from The Book With No Name, which I loved).
Fingers crossed for an equally gripping 3rd book!

Unbelievably good!
I think this book is even better, if possible, as Book with no Name. It had all the ingrediants to make it a book you didn't want to put down, and neither did you want it to end. Read more

The Eye of the Moon
A perfect follow-up to The Book With No Name really - very silly, bloodthirsty and violent with some (perhaps surprisingly) quite heartwarming moments too. Read more
