Lamb

The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal

              The book “Lamb The Gospel According to Biff, Christ’s Childhood Pal” lets the readers know the real story behind how Jesus, or Joshua to those who knew him, came to become the Messiah. While telling this story Christopher Moore uses comedy of ideas and comedy of manners to crack the readers up with dirty jokes and offensive insults towards religions. For example, Joshua travels with his friend Biff to the three Wiseman who teach him about different religions and proper ways of life. Joshua uses this knowledge to help his people, and to later create Christianity. While Moore throws offensive jokes aimed at these religions, suggesting that each of the religions contains major flaws and useless teachings, he insists that Christianity contains a bit of them all. Furthermore, it is an inevitable fact that most of Lamb is composed of dirty gags and sexual jokes. For instance, along their journey Joshua and Biff come across a Yeti, and abominable snowman. Here Moore proposes that a Yeti is the result of a human and a sheep coiling up with each other. In short, you get a yeti when people have sex with sheeps, according to Moore.

             I would without a doubt recommend this book to those seeking humours novels. Lamb is quite possibly the dumbest book ever written in history. Lamb is also the best novel ever. The book introduces to the readers the real, ignored story of Jesus and how Christianity came to be what it is now. It includes abominable snowmen, zombies, kung fu ninjas and even zombies. The twisted plotline and the ironic and satirical jokes will leave the readers cracking up and thinking that they learned something profound that most people in this world are ignorant of. Once again, I consider Lamb as one of the best Moore novels ever written, and it will leave everyone in tears of laughter.
