I throughly appreciate the artwork: it has sense of movement and it dynamic, it makes you feel the era in which this story is set and it so well used to reflect the states of mind of the characters.

It's fun read, lacks structure and, at times, it feels like just lazy writing: you don't get a deep study of the cultural significance of the navel nor a candid reflexion on it.

This is a rich, dense and oh! so well documented that, if you don't know what you are heading into, it will hit you by surprise. But, if you are in a search to understand the origins of Christianity, this is an amazing resource.
