I read the first one because my In-Laws sent us a copy. I found it mostly unintentionally funny. The characterizations and writing style were less than mature, never mind the theology--- Our hero is an airline pilot, therefore you can trust he'll never be mistaken about UFO, ghosts, or supernatural.
I don't think it caused other readers of the book much embarrassment as I took it to the doctors office with me and not one but four or five eager Christians wanted to talk about what a good book it was. THAT did cause me some embarrassment.
But maybe you're right and thier. My poll has three responses and Drich's is the only Christian one. Not that we have many Christians here. But we do have a few.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
