De Heer does a good job of explaining in broad strokes five major religions and giving some context to some foundational beliefs. I would highly recommend reading something more substantial to understand the nuance in these religions. This is very, very simplified. I would love to see this same concept done again in a longer format by a more skilled author. But in terms of a refresher to someone who studied world religions, it’s good. The art was not my aesthetic or particularly helpful. It’s a difficult topic to cover gracefully and she manages to come out the other end relatively safe—for better or worse.
