This is an incredible novel especially for a debut. It reminds me of early Chuck Palahniuk with the tone and the unexpected twist. The story seems very simple at first, but gets complex. I have complete respect for the author, who decided to publish it himself. In that same vein I would have given it a five, if it didn't possess typos. But, aside from the typos that made me scratch my head, this is probably one of the best and most disturbing books I have read in a long time. As a reader, you will find yourself going back and re-reading parts just to make sure you understand what is happening because there are turns, and in the end it will all click. Then you will realize that this is more than a thriller novel, it has multiple levels. So if you are interested in reading something that is smart please check out The Trouble With Being God. William F. Aicher I look forward to reading more of your work.   hide
