Who P-p-p-plugged Roger Rabbit? opens with a call from Roger to hard-boiled private eye Eddie Valiant. Roger suspects that Jessica is baking her carrot cakes for movie heartthrob Clark Gable. The scandal threatens to rob Roger of the Rhett Butler role in the soon-to-be-filmed Toon musical comedy Gone with the Wind. Investigating Jessica's alleged affair, valiant Eddie finds adultery turning to murder. In no time flat, he's up to his fedora in a nasty web of deceit, intrigue, and Hollywood corruption, including reports from all over of a swindling, cheating, blackmailing... Roger!!?!?! Something is really p-p-p-popping in Toontown! Some of the wildest creatures seen in fiction (and real life) abound: Police Sergeant Bulldog Bascomb, a full-blooded hound with razor-sharp teeth sunk into Eddie's case; Heddy, Eddie's sister and possible prime suspect; Kirk Enigman, a very "shadow"-y guy; and Joellyn, Jessica's twin sister, shockingly different in one small way! As if this isn't enough, human luminaries run fast and furious. Who P-p-p-plugged Roger Rabbit? is a comically brilliant sequel, as unique and original as the first time we saw Roger and Jessica together in Wolf's Who Censored Roger Rabbit?, the book that kicked off the whole Toon craze.… (mer)

At the start of this book, I felt I would not enjoy it as much as the first, but as soon as a short relative of Jessica’s was introduced, I laughed all the way to the end. Gary has the witty patter down p-p-p-perfectly. I have such fond memories of the film, but feel as though the rabbit written here is worth loving all over again. I’m also left feeling a mite sorry for him, which only adds to the charm of these stories. Another surprise to enjoy was a whole new take of how Gone With the Wind was cast. ( )

It's a Good Mystery - But Takes Too Long to Get There

I really enjoyed Wolf's first Roger Rabbit novel - and I enjoyed the film, "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", quite a bit - so, I expected to like this book a good deal. I did, more or less. The problem is that it overindulges in some of the pulp fiction tropes to the point where the novel became a bit of a slog to read. I dug the characters and the mystery, but it was just exhausting to get through this book at times. I could only recommend it to mega Roger Rabbit fans. ( )

Very disappointing. I was looking forward to a sequel to the original novel, which I had enjoyed, but this is a sequel to the bears-little-relation-to-its-origins movie. And manages to not have inherited any of the charms of either of its "parents". ( )

Ugh a mug this book was rough. All the cliches that the author employed in the first book show up here, but they're somehow more annoying. This odd marrying of his writing with a plot-line akin to the movie - it just doesn't work. I know that I can't dissuade Roger Rabbit fans from reading it, but everyone else should steer clear. ( )
