So the main character spends a good chunk of their time talking about the religion that they have created which is a spin-off of Christianity and other religions like Buddhism. Personally, it didn't really resonate with me and I didn't like how the main character tried to force it on everyone because they thought it was the truth. In my humble opinion, the entire story would have remained the same. If not for the religion. Despite this, I will most likely read the the sequel see what happens
