Publisher's summary

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.

I Liked It

Island of the Sequined Love Nun is a cute story. This is what I've come to expect from Christopher Moore; a light amusing story revolving around quirky characters. I think it's worth the download.

Refreshingly original

Most books these days consist of a new twist of a pot that has been done before. But not this one. This is an original idea that was funny, captivating, well written and then narrator was wonderful.

Kept me wanting more

Semi-funny. Very worth listening to. I got this book based on reviews of it being hilarious. I found it to be a good book based on me wanting to hear more. Hilarious, not really. Interesting plot line, yes. It did have me laughing at certain parts. I found it to be a good past time listen to.
