What Can I Say?
This is probably the worst book I've read in a long time. The story line is the story of Jesus, and is totally unoriginal except that it takes,place in contemporary Ireland. The language, sentence structure, use of cliches, and gaps in the flow of the novel make it annoying to read. I kept asking myself if this author had an editor. I did, however, finish the book just to see how the author would tie up the loose ends. Predictably trite.

A poorly written cringe worthy spin on the Jesus narrative.

Great story
It seems all that divides us really unites us in the end. Great story that keeps the reader engaged to the end.

Inspirational to say the least!!
I was inspired by so many aspects of this book, I had a hard time putting it down. There were so many parts that I could relate to and believe due to my own faith. I cried so many times I lost count. This is probably one of the Best books I have read in years.

This book is hard to explain but for me it was well worth the read. It compares the life of an an orphan baby boy born during the appearance of Haileys Comet in Galway Ireland; to the life of Jesus.
There were many similarities-- but the growth of this boy brought in new people and situations.
This book has a little everything for everyone..Murder, Love, Marriage, and Kidnap.. This book made each person believeable and made me want to know how it was going to end --- and the ending was abrupt --- or was it????

OK - the writing was kind of cheesy, the storyline predictable; but it gets to the heart of what the Irish people are like (especially in the West of Ireland). Growing up Irish American, I got a kick out of the Irish names - same names I grew up with (Murphy, Cronin, O'Kane, etc.). I enjoyed the story and even shed a tear toward the end.
