A review by srreid
The Ballad of Halo Jones by Alan Moore
3.0
Well that was a bit of a slog.
First third was pretty uninteresting. Far too much sci-fi speak of makey up words makes it hard to follow. Plus the main part of the first book is just a shopping trip, exciting stuff!
Second picked up a bit, but still not a lot going on. Still pretty average after part 2, averageness explained in the prologue to book 2 - she is an average character who's most famous quote is 'anyone could've done it'
Final third got some decent action, which redeemed this review to 3 stars. Overall very disjointed - it shows these were written at different times.
