I never actually finished reading this book so I wasn't going to review it. I changed my mind, however the review is very short.

I apologise if I offend anyone who has read this and enjoyed it.


Why was this a bestseller?

James Redfield obviously just wanted to write a book about his New Age religion but decided that he would put it into a fictional setting. Maybe he thought people would be more likely to read it that way. Sneaky.

What was good about it: I'd never read anything about this religion/spirituality before so that was interesting.

What was bad about it: Obviously the author hadn't actually bothered much with the story part of the book, he just wanted to focus on the dialogue parts which explained his religion.
