Title: Unrelenting Tedium
Review: This is one ponderous monster of a novel that lasts forever. There isn't a believeable person in the whole book. The women were all airheads looking to some pretty stupid men for guidance. Why couldn't the female savior at least have acted like she had a brain. I could buy the evil cardinals' cabal, but that confederacy of cartoon dunces just ended-up lame. There are too many long speeches, too many dumb parables, and too many pages where nothing happens. It finally limps to a conclusion that is a real dud. So many here have mentioned the bad writing that I won't mention it again, but I was shocked something like this was actually in hardcover briefly. It doesn't seem likely that even one of those vanity presses would put out gunk like this.
