Forged: Writing in the Name of God by Bart D. Ehrman
3.0
A little tedious to get through, but full of interesting information nonetheless.
I think Ehrman present a well reasoned argument for his contention that many of the books in the bible are forged, giving examples and citing sources all the while.
His breakdown of how forgery was viewed in biblical times (not at all favorably) and of all the ways that one can tell a work is forged is interesting throughout.
I already have another of his books lined up to read.
