On a Pale Horse by Piers Anthony

1.0

Countless unnecessary and misplaced comments about women’s bodies. A main character written as forward thinking can’t hide the authors clear prejudices against women. The author tries to prove they aren’t sexist with lazy dialogue and inner monologues that do pretty much the opposite.

There’s no better way to ruin a fantasy by overindulging in the corporate worldbuilding. I don’t care about the legalities of Satan posting billboards, or the legal system of Purgatory. It completely pulls you out of the terribly boring plot of….Death trying to essentially sue Satan in court? What a thrilling way to beat the Devil.
