Lord of Light

The Good:
So amazing! Great characters, great setting, great ideas, epic scope, and so well written. This is a science fiction story presented like mythology and it works. Did I mention it's funny too?
The Bad:
The only thing really wrong with this is that the story races ahead of the reader, daring you to try and keep up. It's not often that I think a book should be longer, but in the case of this one it needed more exposition.
'Friends' character the protagonist is most like:
Sam is cynical, driven, and the sanest god in the room. He mostly exists to show how freaky everyone else is, much like Monica.

I'm halfway through and loving it after a slow start. I wish I had more time to read over the coming fortnight.

I haven't read anything by him and I know I should. I will. When I have time:)
