Private eye Eddie Valiant doesn't like Toons - those cartoon characters who live side-by-side with humans. Not the way they look, and especially not the way they talk: word-filled balloons come out of their mouths and then disintegrate, leaving dust all over his rug.

Eddie will work for a Toon if his cash supply is low enough. So he reluctantly agrees when Roger Rabbit, a Toon who plays straight man (or should that be straight rabbit) in the Baby Herman cartoon series, asks him to find out who's been trying - unsuccessfully - to buy his contract from the DeGreasy Brothers syndicate.

Then Rocco DeGreasy is murdered - and Roger is the prime suspect! The rabbit is also, as Eddie soon discovers, very, very dead. Who censored Roger Rabbit? And who shot Rocco DeGreasy? Was it Roger, or was it Rocco's hot-cha-cha girlfriend, Jessica Rabbit? Why had Jessica - a pretty steamy number for a Toon - ever married a dopey bunny in the first place? And why does everybody want Roger's battered old teakettle?

As Eddie combs L.A. from the executive suites of the DeGreasy Brothers to Sid Sleaze's porno comic studio, he uncovers art thefts, blackmail plots...and the cagiest killer he's ever faced.

Though it isn't like the movie, this book brings a new and interesting perspective on the noir story style. Plus since it is a different story, you'll have a good time not knowing what's gonna happen.

Obviously much different than the film we know and love. The story is a lot of fun and the reader does a great job.

Fun

I admit it. I saw the movie first, and I did like the movie more. It took me a while to accept that I was reading nothing like Who Framed Roger Rabbit. The book presents a totally different Roger and Jessica, so don't let preconceptions lead you astray. The solution to the murder mystery could have been foreshadowed a bit more, but given the cartoon world, it works well.

Don't expect anything like the movie!

I had no idea that the movie was based (loosely) on a novel. Aside from the world and a few character names, this is nothing like the movie. I can see why someone chose to make a movie of this though. It's a brilliant, original, and HIGHLY visual world that this complex noir story weaves its way through. It's begging to be seen. Who Censored Roger Rabbit asks the question 'what if humans and classic cartoons coexisted' then takes the answers seriously. I'm so glad I gave this a chance.

Inspired

I had no idea the history of this series when compared to the Disney/touchstone film and super happy that I selected this title.

Both unpredictable and enjoyable

I really enjoyed this book. But it is not at all like the film. so if you are looking for a fun adaptation to the Disney movie don't read this book. but if you're looking for a noiresque mystery with an interesting twist this book's for you.

NOT the movie

It was a lot of fun! Not at all like the movie, although you can see where they got the material. It was a fun mystery and felt like a classic private eye story.

Surprising

I’ve seen the movie version of course, but somehow didn’t know it was an adaptation of a series of books. My bad.

This book is quite, quite different from the movie in nearly every way other than a few of the characters and some dialogue. Nonetheless it is fantastic as a stand-alone story.

The writing is snappy, noire detective fiction ad seen through the lens of a world where humans and toons are coexisting as separate species and have been from the beginning. Just go with it, you won’t regret it.

The narrator is fantastic in his ability to conjure up characters both human and toon and make them believable. The nod to Jimmy Stewart is not only brilliant but also somehow touching like a tribute to a fine actor and the characters he created.

Absolutely credit worthy!

What a great ride this turned out to be.

I been a fan of Roger Rabbit since I saw the movie as a kid. knowing the movie inside out backwards and forwards jts quite refreshing to see such a different take on the beloved Rabbit. this is a very well written mystery that keeps you guessing until the end allyhe while entertaining you with the antics of the Toons. if your a fan of the movie you owe it to yourself to read the orgins of the toon rabbit.

a wonderfully imaginintive story
