Holy Bible: King James Version by Anonymous
1.0
It's strange that one of the most important, most dangerous, and most misused books in the world could be so mind-numbingly boring. Anyone who claims they live their life by the bible should actually read it and see exactly what it is they claim to do. I'm guessing most people ignore 90% of what it says to do.
Worst fantasy/speculative fiction novel of all time. Unbelievable characters, poor writing skills. This fantasy book can't even keep the internal logic of it's world going. And the god character is just such a unrelenting villain that it's a real downer. For some bizarre reason, it's ok that cities are destroyed (down to the last donkey, never mind the children), so long as God is on your side. In Part I God makes a bunch of rules, and ruthlessly punishes his chosen people for not following said rules. In Part II God sacrifices himself to himself so that he doesn't have to punish people for breaking the rules any more. The rest of Part II is mainly about how most of the old rules don't apply any more, except for the ones that do (namely, don't be gay/pedophile or a sorcerer). Then a bunch of weird apocalyptic shit happens.
