A little shy of the halfway point, I'm really enjoying it. It's reminding me that I need to go and finish reading Joseph Campbell's Masks of God series. The book's central conceit about the nature of gods isn't terribly original, but the way that conceit is mapped on to American culture is quite spiffy to my mind.
