It's just written in this really dense, flowery style. I mean, what was the author even trying to be? It's like he read an emo teen's poetry once and now he wants every sentence to be 10 times more archaic than the average person can understand.
And don't even get me started on the plot holes. There's so many of them. If you even think about the story it stops making sense. So the main character becomes his son, who is still himself, and then lets himself be killed in order to allow himself to forgive his creations of the crimes he convicted them of? Who even wrote this?
It's just not a compelling story. I mean, there's some cool parts in the first half. All of the dudes fighting over that kingdom. But then it skips ahead a few thousand years and all of the sudden the kingdom gets conquered and we don't even hear about it until it's old news. Then the main character's son comes in and does his thing, and once they kill him off one of his buddies just writes letters to other guys until the very end when another one of his buddies writes about some crazy dream he had.
I feel like the author just got lazy at the end.
Plus the main character is totally unlikable. He kills more innocent people than the villain! |

You're going out of your way to be an edgy anti-Christian by imitating other anti-Christians.
That's called being a try-hard.

| Yeah. 'Twas a pretty enjoyable read. The author really has a knack for writing fiction. A shame they never made a sequel. |

| I only came here because I need my daily religious debate fix. You fled from the scene of the last religious debate when you realized you were outmatched, so I have followed you here. I'm quite a proficient stalker, eh? |

I don't mind answering questions
but I don't very much like to argue with a troll because it goes in a continuous circle
but apparently you aren't any less of a troll than cheese, so |

| Ah, I see my good friend. So instead of debating me you settle with calling me a troll? Save for my last comment, with was a mere joke I have not "trolled" here once. |

"with was a mere joke"

this was the internet, in case you didn't know |

Making fun of something doesn't make me a tryhard. I thought it would be fun to write a sarcastic critical review of the bible, so I did. And it was.
Then I saw the low hanging fruit when someone was offended by it so I went at it |
