Moe Howard Died For Our Sins Review

Moe Howard Died For Our Sins:made-to-fit tales for the maladjusted

By Dale Andrew White


With humor as twisted as its stories’ plots, Moe Howard Died For Our Sins takes readers on a rollicking, hilarious ride. Go to Hell - and see it as a tourist. Get lured into a pie-throwing cult. Peek backstage at the Second Coming. Encounter talking pigs, a tongue-twisting poet, levitating patients, militant tots and a song-and-dance act that’s its own show-stopper. The misadventures just keep coming. Partly fantasy, partly satire, this collection of short fiction is totally bent.

***MY HONEST REVIEW OF MOE HOWARD***

This is a collection of short stories that will make you laugh out loud. All are written as dark comedies with characters that you either love or hate. Before reading this, I had no idea who Moe Howard was. I was expecting him to just be a fictional character. Now that I can connect him to the Three Stooges, I understand where all the slapstick humor is coming from.


The varied topics kept me entertained. When you can personify the grim reaper and other characters of his stature, it can’t help but be hilarious. Then, imagine a school principal enforcing rules that encourage delinquency, and it becomes an improvement. These are the types of stories that had me reading the book in one sitting. This author knows how to write a story short enough that you enjoy it, and you are left wanting more; more of these characters, more new stories, just plain more.
