Loved the playful banter between religion and science. The book was very entertaining and moved at a great pace. Most of the plot twists I saw coming but I learned about some great places in Spain that i feel inspired to visit. Book didn’t change my life or change my world view but if Maximus asked me , are you not entertained? I would say yes I was!!
