Title: He tried but his writing ruined a good story.
Product review: I didn't find it funny. The story could have been told in one-third the pages. The early development of Charlie Croker was perfect but wasn't sustained as the descriptions of his behavior as attempts to define his personality became repetitive. To anyone who has known someone like that (or lived in Georgia), who he was became qukckly apparent. The possible humor in his becoming an evangelist was without impact because by the time it was revealed, the reader's thought was only, "when is this thing going to end?". My enjoyment of the book was ruined by many factual errors. For example Gulfstream have always numbered their successive models with Roman Numerals (Gulfstream V, not Gulfstream 5). He should have invented his own airplane and called it the "Big time flyer" or some such. The story concept was very good but the reader was so overburdened with page after page of unrelated words that the humor in, and potential of, the story was lost.
