Title: Roller Coaster Ride With Too Sweet An Ending
Review: A though-provoking mixture of science fiction and religion, The Last Day has major motion picture written all over it, with the exception of protests by Roman Catholic groups! The characters are interesting, the premise surprisingly "possible," but the ending is devoid of the pyrothechnic special effects that the first 98% of the story implies. The final pages are more out of a "made for TV" after school special. It was a fun book that was hard to put down, but it does seem that Kleier has a whole closet of axes to grind with the Pope and his pals. If Speilberg wants to touch this one, the last few pages need a rewrite!
