"The birth of Jesus has been well chronicled, as have his glorious teachings, acts, and divine sacrifice after his thirtieth birthday. But no one knows about the early life of the Son of God, the missing years -- except Biff, the Messiah's best bud, who has been resurrected to tell the story in the divinely hilarious yet heartfelt work "reminiscent of Vonnegut and Douglas Adams" (Philadelphia Inquirer).
Verily, the story Biff has to tell is a miraculous one, filled with remarkable journeys, magic, healings, kung fu, corpse reanimations, demons, and hot babes. Even the considerable wiles and devotion of the Savior's pal may not be enough to divert Joshuafrom his tragic destiny. But there's no one who loves Josh more -- except maybe "Maggie," Mary of Magdala -- and Biff isn't about to let his extraordinary pal suffer and ascend without a fight."

Christopher Moore is one of my favourite authors - and for good reason. He is a funny and entertaining writer. Lamb is humorous account of Jesus' youth and development. By reading the epilogue, you can see that a great deal of research went into the development of the storyline, in addition to the fantastic narrative. While, Moore obviously took some liberties in his interpretation of events, as he pointed out, this is no different then any other interpretation.
This book is amongst Moore's finest work and definitely worth reading. I hope the next reader enjoys it as much as I did and takes the time to explore Moore's other work if they have not yet.
