Title: Sigh...
Review: It is sad that a writer as gifted as William Horwood chose to stoop to writing a series that depicts the Bible and Jesus Christ in such a way. In his first Duncton triology he has moles following the faith of "the Word" as his antagonists, in this book a mole is martyred and executed as Jesus Christ was. This book, like the others in the series, makes an excellent secular fantasy read - the plot is really captivating and the prose is excellently written. However, his plagiatism and blasphemy of the Bible is inexcusable - instead of creating a relevant faith for his moles he had to go and twist the Christian faith around. Other than this major blodge, this is a good read.
