Riveting and original!

If you think the religious right is ridiculous, you will definitely get a kick out of He's Back by Theodore Roosevelt Gardner II. The constant jammering at Biblical doctrine is lighthearted and philosophical at the same time. A surprise twist at the end makes this book a "don't miss" story. -Athalia Stoneback
An engaging novel of colorful characters
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
In Theodore Gardner's He's Back, a man steps off an airplane at LAX claiming to be Jesus Christ come back to earth. What follows is an engaging novel of colorful characters spanning the spectrum of time and beliefs. Their is the eloquent Jesus with a simple message, hist faith wife, an embittered and cynical ex-priest, a reporter who styles himself the "Debunker of Myths", and a misguided young woman tied to the wrong profession. A fascinating, thoroughly entertaining story, He's Back is one of those tales that grips the reader from page one and just won't let go!
thought provoking

I really enjoyed this book - the separate voices, one chapter after another, allowing events to unfold through the eyes of all participants, was a pretty original choice. I was never sure whether it was supposed to be a was he, wasn't he mystery, but that didn't take away from my enjoyment. I've recommended it to several people of various religious backgrounds, and it's been the basis for many interesting conversations. If anyone enjoyed this book, I also recommend "The Last Day", by an author whose name slips my mind.
