This novel made me think- mainly about the review I would write for it. On one hand, I deeply enjoyed this young man's moxie and on the other I kept thinking- Sheesh! What's new? I can remember sitting around the hooka and discussing these very things in my teens and early 20's (I was a child of the sixties after all- and Timothy Leary wasn't dead).Still, it was a well written, researched, humorous and bold approach to the age-old questions about Life- God, and what it means to be human.In the end, whether you choose to believe in a higher power or not, the choice bolls down to how you- as an individual- want to live your life. Either throw it all in and accept the fact that we are nothing but an accident of nature- no more mindful than a sand worm burrowing for constant shelter... OR look around and truly believe that the planet throbs with magic and possibilities.I will say this- I would like to see what this young man comes up with a few years down the line. Many twenty-somethings these days have no more brains (or creativity) than the aforementioned sand worm, but Paul Hahn has real potential. I would like to see what he has to say about things in another ten years or so.There were a few grammar nits in the telling and spelling errors, but all in all this was a fine effort. 4 Stars!
