Yes, I read it on a good recommendation. I also was not too
impressed.
Somewhere around half-way through it, I started yelling at the
characters, saying something on the order of, "Take the stupid
puzzle box to an CAT scanner already!"
The twist at the end obviously took a lot of work to set up, and
I think a lot of that was well done. It didn't really hit me as
one might wish it too, but I don't see how to rewrite it to make
it work better.
Later I saw that he seemed to have lifted large amounts of the
Jesus material from an earlier "non-fiction" book whose name
escapes me.
