Often sacrilegious, somewhat silly and mostly humorous. This book does portray the history well (Sicarii, Essenes and Zealots, oh my!) and tackles the "missing years" in a way that fits the story beautifully. Played more for humor are the parts where the Biff invents the Latte, kitchen matches and sarcasm. While occasionally absurd, the two main characters have a great relationship, and both grow considerably over the course of the novel.

Christopher Moore has described this as his favorite book; I look forward to trying one of his more fictional tales soon.
