it was ok
bookshelves: classic

The beyond classic 17th century first published and questionably still the greatest work of theoretical fiction is a must-read because of its status in global publishing history. The book itself is very meh, but its appeal to readers interested in theoretical Christian fiction is way beyond doubt, and with its standing in history the very least I can give it is a Two Star, 5 out of 12. Still a book that has to surely be on every reader's tick-list?

J. Muro Baba, this is one of my favourite childhood books, except the best one enjoyed was the illustrated one, and yet, unable to find it and who the artist was,…I was a child,…then�?

Well good luck searching for it... ABE Books is a great place to search for rare reads :)

Carolyn Walsh Many, many years ago my father loved this book. He had the illustrated edition. He would read from it at night, and as a child, it was always guaranteed to send me to sleep.

Such a sweet memory Carolyn, but also so understandable how it would have guaranteed to send you to sleep :)

Larry Sanger May I point out that if PP is a “must read� for the reasons you state, how much more is the Bible itself?
