Review: The 5 star reviews are lying
Rating: 1 out of 5
Date: 01 23, 2013
I purchased this book based on an Amazon recommendation and the featured reviews stating it was 5 star and claiming that it was as good at Stephen Kings The Stand.I don't believe I've ever seen a worse case of Amazon rating manipulation ever.First thing you need to know: this isn't a EMP/ society collapse story at all. If you've read the book description that's what you'd think you were buying, but you're not.Spoliers ahead.The book is essentially a whacky right wing religious novel with a pseudo Christ figure (Jonah Truth) saving people at the end of days.To make the book even more nutty, Jonah Truth is guided by Angels, including Lucifer, who is apparently trying to redeem himself.The writing style is...flaky to say the least, and the back story (wacky evil scientists with magical powers and some sort of one world government) is beyond poor.Don't make the mistake of buying this book unless you're a far right wing religious nut who is looking for an end of days book.
