Arcanum by M.C. Moulton was AMAZING! A funny lighthearted adventure about 5 friends and their quest to get a secret weapon back into the right hands. Arc Arcanum their almost fearless leader finds himself in disaster after disaster taking the reader on a hilarious journey they wont soon forget.
My first impressions of Arcanum was that I loved the cover. Let me make this clear though, I like anime, manga and RPG's so it instantly appealed to me. However I still wasn't sure what to expect. However if you like all those things then you will LOVE this book. I don't know if that's what the author was going for but it definitely worked!
M.C. Moulton is a very comical author blending in pop culture references that made laugh out loud on more than one occasion. Actually I recall my husband asking me to stop reading one night because I was keeping him awake. I so didn't. I don't like to compare authors but reading this book definitely reminded me of Christoper Moore. Another creative touch that I liked were the mini flashbacks at the end of each chapter, (always hilarious) and I found myself trying to guess what it was going to be about.
Overall this book was an action packed adventure about friendship that I would recommend to anyone looking for a good laugh. I see myself reading it again and again and I'm telling everyone about it.
