A review by mharrison13
In the Shadow of the House of God by Jeffrey G. Roberts

3.0

What is it about?

God and the Devil make a dangerous wager to determine once and for all if humanity is good or evil.

Was it good?

This is a short book that felt well researched. All of the characters were unique. I was fascinated with the descriptions of all the different religions. 

And yet, I was disappointed by God. (Don't smite me!) I expected some underhanded shenanigans from the Devil, but I really feel like God cheated on this bet. I would have liked to see the same ending come about more naturally.
