I read this book as a pre-release e-book obtained through NetGalley, provided by the publisher.

I found this book to tell a delightfully original story depicting God as a “regular guy” character, who even takes on a “regular guy” name. I enjoyed the puns and double-entendres throughout the book. One of the characters in the book is a fictionalized version the author himself – who loves to play with words. Several times the author references one of his own previous books, with a picture of that book included.

There are descriptions of places and things, with pictures of artwork or photographs of actual places. Some of the places that are within “God’s realm” – not the “Heaven” on the 100th floor of a skyscraper, are real places on earth – which have photographs. I give the author some extra points when referring to actual organizations in non-complimentary ways, but rather than naming them describes what they are. God opines about them, especially about getting news or religious beliefs from a single source. This might not age well as organizations and media in the US may change – I think of how this could be described to a young person reading this 50 years from now. Yet, the story is timeless.

God has a staff of people in a corporate-like hierarchy who actually "do" most things or create them. It was fun getting to "sit in" on just how various lifeforms are created, and categorized.

There is a mystery of how or where two of the protagonists previously met. The mystery is brought to light at the end, and is another upbeat story wrapped around the main story
