    Excellent book! Never a dull moment. After establishing the characters with a good dose of humor, the story moves quickly to the plot: the discovery of a mysterious manuscript and the involvement of a slimy TV evangelical group in its translation. It then flashes back to the origin of the supernatural text in biblical times with a cast of familiar characters in unfamiliar situations, and ends up with a startling conclusion. It's sure to get lots of people rereading their Bibles and wondering why they've never heard of any of this! Readers who want a fast paced story with enough detail to get your imagination going but without page after page of boring descriptions of room furnishings, lint on someone's jacket, the smell of coffee, how I feel this morning, etc., will enjoy this. I hope there's a sequel.
