The second installment in the LOEG saga (which apparently will go on as long as Alan Moore's library holds out) is not quite like the first one.Volume 1 was at its heart a rollicking , globe-hopping adventure story, in the same vein as the books it pays homage to: the Alan Quatermain stories, Dracula, and Victorian trash adventures. My 9-year-old brother loves it. Volume 2 is a much darker story, and my brother won't be getting to read it any time soon. Volume 2, centered around H.G. Wells War of the Worlds, takes place more in England, and there's a whole bunch of pages dedicated to character development only hinted at in Vol. 1. The star of Vol. 2 is definitely Mr. Hyde, who comes across less as a simple monster, and more lke the great Moore anti-heroes, in the same league as Rorschach or V.To be completely honest, the main selling point of Vo. 2 was the New Travelers' Almanac, a 6-part compendium in the back that acts as the densest fan-fiction ever. Under the guise of a series of travel notes, Moore weaves in every possible fiction of the time, and fiction from other times too. (His reference to the Big Lebowski rocked my world.) This book is not for the casual reader.
