After seeing stacks of this book at Sam's club and the huge number of people 'wishing' for this book, I put myself into my local library's queue for a copy. I love books dealing with Biblical themes, from non-fiction books dealing with newly translated scrolls to utter unbelievable but what-if fictional stories. This book was well-written and carried the reader along at a fast pace, while dealing with subject matter that clearly falls into the fantasy deep-end of what I hesitate to call, even loosely, Biblical fiction. The plot line was fleshed out until the last 5 or so pages, when the author turned the book in a direction that seemed to negate all of the previous pages. When this happens, I don't know whether authors have written themselves into a corner or whether they're just tired of dealing with the manuscript. To me, the ending made reading the book a waste of time. Sorry.
