By Christopher Moore

A pair of traveling companions make their to Pine Cove, California – one is one-hundred-year-old ex-seminarian and roads scholar Travis O’Hearn; the other is Catch, a demon. A demon who likes to eat people. Travis is looking for a way to get rid of his traveling companion. Catch is looking for lunch. All hell will break loose as the two make their way through town. This is Christopher Moore’s debut novel…

And it shows. I vaguely remember reading this book as a teen when it first came out. Moore makes a series of backstories work with his witty observations and dialogue. But this one reads as a lesser work compared to his later writings.
