Prodigal father, pagan son

I love glimpses into other peoples lives especially those who have had larger than life experiences or are able to tell their tales in compelling ways. For the most part Mr. Menginie's story rings true but there are, what appear to me, to be several inconsistencies and sometimes things just don't jibe. There are other times where I see glimpses of quite good writing. I'm going with a three this time and hope that he does write another book.
