Review title: Rice's Best Book Since The Early '80's
Product review: This novel's setting ranges from Persian-dominated Babylon of mid-Biblical times to modern Manhattan, and concerns the spirit of a once-mortal Israelite youth held on the earth by ancient magic that compels it to stay in this plane for as long as its gold-encased bones remain uncorrupted. This spirit tells its tale and works to foil the plot of a Jewish messiah-figure, who seeks to 'purify' the world of most of its population, in order to bring about a utopian realm for Jews and a select few other peoples. Good historical descriptions of ancient Persia and of modern Jewish life within the xenophobic ultra-conservative Chasidic courts of New York.
