“I can be most colorful and inventive when I am angry.” ― Christopher Moore
Is a story of redemption starring a vampire possible? Is it possible to combine horror, comedy, and a message of hope and fight against evil? All that and much more in my novel "W, Vampire Mod."
Coming soon in "Terra Ignota" editions and Amazon
¿Es posible una historia de redención protagonizada por un vampiro? ¿Se pueden combinar terror, comedia y un mensaje de esperanza y lucha contra el mal? Todo esto y mucho más en "W, Vampiro Mod y el Grimorio de Gregorio"

Anima Rising by Christopher Moore - blurrypetals review
originally posted may 14, 2025 - ★★★★☆
No matter how silly, wacky, or downright strange Christopher Moore's writing gets, I always feel like I learn something from his work. From Inuit gods and culture to the Frankenstein story to Sigmund Freud, Carl Jung, and Gustav Klimt, this has so much history and culture to unpack and explore, it was really delightful to learn about it all.
The premise of this novel is so wild, however, I really would love to know what inspired Moore to bring it all together. I loved his author notes at the end explaining some of the real-life history and things that led to this novel's creation, but I really would love to have a conversation with the Author Guy about this book.
I'd definitely consider this a spiritual successor to Sacré Bleu and certainly felt that way before Moore mentioned it in the author notes. Sacré Bleu is really not my favorite book of his, probably even my least favorite book of Moore's besides Coyote Blue (maybe it's the color blue?) but I think the reason I didn't care for Sacré Bleu was simply that I didn't find it funny like. This book, however, has so much of Moore's signature humor despite also being what I'd consider his darkest story yet.
It's always a bit of a comfort to me to read a Christopher Moore novel. It always just feels like I'm greeting an old friend. I love the way his mind works and, with this work, perhaps more than any other before, I really don't think anyone else could have dreamt these pieces would fit together. Fitting that all this book involving Frankenstein's creations and other seemingly disparate parts were sewn together to create something more than the sum of its parts!
to understand me, you'll have to swallow a world
