The Good Man Jesus and the Scoundrel Christ

Author: Philip Pullman
Stars: 3

Review by: Mich D

This is the author who wrote The Golden Compass.  The Church was upset with that book because of some of the ideas and was very vocal about it.  I guess this is one of those "be careful who you piss off" because in this one he changes the stories of Jesus Christ into stories about two brothers -- one named Jesus, one named Christ.  Interesting read if you know the biblical stories.  Really quick read too.  Don't read it if it's going to get you upset because it questions the Christian stories.
