Island of the Sequined Love Nun

Take a wonderfully crazed excursion into the demented heart of a tropical paradise--a world of cargo cults, cannibals, mad scientists, ninjas, and talking fruit bats. Our bumbling hero is Tucker Case, a hopeless geek trapped in a cool guy's body, who makes a living as a pilot for the Mary Jean Cosmetics Corporation. But when he demolishes his boss's pink plane during a drunken airborne liaison, Tuck must run for his life from Mary Jean's goons. Now there's only one employment opportunity left for him: piloting shady secret missions for an unscrupulous medical missionary and a sexy blond high priestess on the remotest of Micronesian hells. Here is a brazen, ingenious, irreverent, and wickedly funny novel from a modern master of the outrageous.

“"With a high-octane plot and a truly original cast of crazies, Moore spins a skillful comic caper that is bolstered by his ditzy logic and hysterical dialogue."”

"Fans of Kurt Vonnegut and Douglas Adams will especially enjoy Moore's peculiar take on the world."

-- "Library Journal"

"Humor that seamlessly blends lunacy with larceny."

-- "USA Today"

"The best yet from Moore."

-- "Kirkus Reviews"

-- "Booklist"
