It’s twice as long as The Bible, and about half as funny

Classic Pargin novel that can't be taken too seriously. Funny, quick paced and enjoyable. Good concept too.

My biggest gripe is that it lacked a bit of depth at times and some character opinions/changes came out of nowhere to make a point or push the story along.
