Title: A Voice of Dissent
Product review: The vast majority of people who read this book seem to absolutely love it. In fact, it was after several ranting reviews that I finally picked it up. If you're a diehard Pratchett or Gaiman fan, you'll very likely love it.However, for the rest of us, this is really not all it's cracked up to be. The characters are thin and one dimensional. A good lot of the jokes fall flat on their faces. The world's logic is extremely inconsistant within it's own scope. We all know that it's supposed to be absurd and rediculous from time to time -- and sometimes it does so well. Too many others, and it does so a bit too poorly.The most entertaining bits seem to involve the vast and frequent footnotes.All in all, if you're looking for a a classic Brit Humor tale about an eleven year old Antichrist, this book is for you. If this sort of thing isn't your cup of tea, ignore your friends and co-workers and move on.
