[Christopher Moore] You Suck
Da es ein englische Roman ist, ist der Inhalt das gefälligst auch, wer keine englisch versteht, hat hier eigentlich eh nichts verloren^^
The story of You Suck continues directly from the previous novel, Bloodsucking Fiends. Jody, a newly minted vampire, has remained in San Francisco despite her promise to the police to move away after the previous incidents. Tommy, her boyfriend, is shocked at the beginning of the sequel to discover that Jody has "turned" him (i.e., made him a vampire)—hence the title of the novel, although she explains that she did it so that they could be together forever. They struggle to survive and to maintain their relationship despite the efforts of others to eliminate them..
Naturally, several other characters from Bloodsucking Fiends appear in this sequel, including the vampire who originally "turned" Jody, "The Animals"—Tommy's co-workers at the grocery, police detectives Rivera and Cavuto, and "The Emperor". Abby Normal, who was a minor Goth character in A Dirty Job, here provides much of the narration from the diary of her adventures as a "minion" of Tommy and Jody. In addition, the plot briefly intersects with that of A Dirty Job, at the point where Jody visits Charlie Asher's store one night to deliver the "soul vessel" of a dying old man whom she has just consumed. Although many of Moore's books feature appearances by characters from his previous novels, this is the first instance of the same scene being shown in two different books, from two different characters' perspectives.
