Child’s Play by Bill Myers
ISBN 978-0-578-13219-8
Comedy, Futuristic, Christian Fiction
Child’s Play is the first book in The Last Fools series. The characters are quirky and at times far out. It is set in Sisci Heights Mental Health Facility fifty years into the future. The Department of Religious Affairs has not banned religion but is not tolerating it. One of the patients Max as had an encounter with God and leads the other patients on a quest seeking God. I found Max to be very insightful and thought provoking at times. Bernard, talks to tattoos and other objects. One character thought he was a super hero and another a prophet, seeing 20 seconds into the future. The janitor collected their sin, kind of like confession. At times I was just as confused as they are. The funniest part in the book was when they escaped from the hospital. The author Bill Myers must have a quirky sense of humor like the characters. I give Child’s Play 3 stars.
I want to thank the author Bill Myers, publisher Amaris, and The Book Club Network Inc. for providing me with this book in exchange for my honest review and I am so grateful for their, the authors and publishers generosity.
