God of Dung por A. A. Jordan
Esta reseña ha sido escrita para Sorteo de miembros LibraryThing.
I tried really long and hard to like this book. Really, I did. The writing style just isn't my cup of tea. The plot is interesting enough, though. Hence the 2 stars.

I received this book free of charge from the author in exchange for an honest review.
I like this book. It is humorous, has likable characters, and provokes thought. It is a new way to look at religion through fiction. It is us, our thoughts, our beliefs, that keep whichever God we choose to believe in, alive. If it hadn't taken me so long to read this book (had to reread a few parts) I would have given it 5 stars.

I received this book for free from the author in exchange for an honest review. This in no way affected my opinion of the book, or the content of my review.
I wanted to like this book. At times I really did. It made me laugh, and sent me to wikipedia more than once. I like books that make me want to look things up, to learn something new. But that's probably just me.
Clarence is a curmudgeon on his way to a retirement home. Somewhere, somehow, on his way there he ends up in the retirement home for the gods. There are millions of gods there, and Clarence makes friends with a few, enemies with a few more, and is sent on quests to save his life.
The tone is reminiscent of Terry Prachett or Neil Gaiman at their madcap zaniest, but it never quite gets there. There are some really great scenes in the first two thirds of the book, but the last few chapters drag on. It's worth a read, with a few reservations.… (más)

Although God of Dung was well written I couldnt get into the story. I did find it somewhat humorous just not uproariously funny like I was expecting.
