SHOES OF THE FISHERMAN

This book sets the scene for a great trilogy. The theological and political thinking is really inspiring.

Unbearably pedantic with an unexplainable mixture of religious philosophy and a sordid story of a stupid love affair. The only rescuable part is the involvement of the Jewish girl in protecting women who suffer the effect of a terrible drug of the thalidomide kind. The Russian Pope is a week character and his Jesuit friend's role in the book unfathomable.

West is the only writer I know who can turn Canon law into intriguing and readable fiction. A classic on the machinations of the Vatican

Brilliant 1st book of the trilogy, flew through it.

Great Product and all round service thank you.
