Plugged
Plugged: A Novel | Eoin Colfer
4 posts | 8 read | 7 to read
In the tradition of Elmore Leonard and Carl Hiaasen, Plugged tells the story of Daniel McEvoy, an Irish bouncer at a seedy New Jersey club. Daniel has a problem. Well, he has several, but the worst is that the girl he loves was just murdered. Then more people around him start dying--and not of natural causes. Suddenly Daniel's got the mob, cops, and an unstable lovesick neighbor after him, and the only clue points towards the crooked doctor who gave him hair implants before vanishing into thin air. Luckily--or perhaps unluckily--he has the help of a volatile detective, a permanently hungover army psychologist, and a mischievous ghost. In Plugged, Colfer, beloved by millions for his Artemis Fowl series, has written a hilarious tour de force thriller of head-spinning plot twists, compulsive in the tradition of Carl Hiaasen's best work--a "pitch-perfect comic noir" (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Complete with the best banter this side of Elmore Leonard's Detroit, Plugged will leave you shocked, awed, and wanting more.

Plugged: A Novel | Eoin Colfer

This is the first book by Eoin Colder that I have read that was written with an adult audience in mind. I find his main character quite appealing but I think I prefer his TA style.

#sizzlinsummerbooks Day 9: Get aways gone wrong.
From the author of Artemis Fowl, these adult books are about Daniel trying to stay away from his past and hunt down the guy who messed up his hair plugs but we can all guess on how that works out for him. These books are a great laugh.

Former military vet who served as a peacekeeper in the Middle East, Danny is an Irishman now living and working in NJ as a bouncer for a low-end casino; The mix of humor and noir is great, but a bit over complicated in terms of plot twists; Still, looking forward to picking up the sequel, 'Screwed'

I love sharp, clever, fast, and funny writing especially when it comes to dialogue. This looks promising...
