I enjoyed this book thoroughly. Steve LeBel has a witty, tongue in cheek humour that keeps you entertained throughout. I can honestly say that I found it very hard to put this book down, and that was not only because the story was enchanting, but just to enjoy more of Steve’s wit. The Universe Builders reminds me a tad of Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy. I really do think Steve would have done a better job than Eoin Colfer on the sequel. Just saying!The book is what the name implies. It’s about Gods who build universes. In fact, I’ve, always somewhere deep inside, had this theory that life is just a big chess game to God. Sometimes he wins, and sometimes he makes a wrong move, and sometimes he loses. I’m not sure who he’s playing with. But Steve LeBel has taken that thought a step further and actually created a world where Gods live and create their universes. He brings out so cleverly that to them, it’s just a science project, while its life and death for us. I highly recommend this book and I just hope that everyone finds it as pleasurable an experience as I did. A brilliant book! Thanks for whisking me away to a magical place even if it was only for a short time, Steve!
