Negative Positive
Title: Great read
Review: I can see where some people might find this book upsetting, since it pokes some irreverent fun at contemporary religion. At the same time, however, it is hard to ignore the fact that the novel is dead-on accurate in how it portrays the reality of contemporary society and its relationship to religion. More important, the novel blends all this into a first-rate mystery that broaches some of the most challenging and disturbing themes of our time--namely, what our we doing to ourselves following our present course of action. Change is needed, and the mad descent into panic that this novel portrays has a strong ring of reality to it. For a read that will keep you engrossed, make you sweat with fear and challenge your mind as well, this novel is uncommonly good.
