Meh. Some good stuff; some not-so-good stuff. Nothing to shake the foundations of my thinking.

As one would expect from Penn Jillette, this book is a wild ride. Within the first few pages there is a massive fight and everything rolls down from there.

First time reading this author. Description sounded interesting, intelligent, but I didn't get farther than page 37. Just not enough to keep me interested. Seemed rather juvenile and stilted writing. I am only slightly interested to find out if the main character succeeds in his goal or what he does if not.

Received via LibraryThing Early Reviewers in exchange for my review.

Sadly, I did not enjoy this quite as much as God, No!: Signs You May Already Be an Atheist and Other Magical Tales, or the Penn and Teller books I have.
That being said, it has it's own charm and is well written. Definitely an odd beast!
