Title: New Age pseudo-religious blathering
Review: I must admit I was captivated by the storyline throughout most of the novel. I cannot say the same for the ideas proposed theirein however. The "messiah" is a thinly disguised postergirl for all of the NewAge-ism that many American sadly mistake for spirituality. The author is against organized religion and flagrantly anti-Catholic, and shows considerable ignorance toward Roman Catholicism, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Chasidic Judaism, and possibly a few other "hypocritical" religions that I might've forgotten to mention. Enjoy this book for the story, but if you want any real religious insight try Henri Nouwen or Thich Nhat Hanh.
