Meh

Like stepping into a Manet painting.

Easily one of the best books on the life of a Christian I have ever read.

One of those rare occasions where the film is actually better than the book. Still a good book though.

The concept is intriguing (Germany and Japan winning WW II) sure, but nothing actually happens in this book. There is no real plot

SPOILERS:
This is the whole story:
1) a German spy meets a Japanese admiral and warns him Germany may drop a hydrogen bomb on Japan
2) a young lady meets the author of a book depicting a world where Germany lost the war.
3) a Jewish man makes and sells some jewellery.

It's a crime novel where the perp is a shark. What isn't there to like?

There a reason this is king's favourite book.

The only thing stopping me from giving the book a 1/5 rating is the some what interesting world it presents.
