The Last Faith is an entertaining dialogue between narrator and God. It explores three areas: Law of Gene Preservation, Law of Freedom of Choice, and Law of Humandynamics.

The Last Faith was translated from original Russian. The wordplay and dry sense of humor survived the translation well. The tone is conversational, which allows the reader to follow a focused discussion. I admired the respectful comparing and contrasting of atheism versus belief.

Partake of the word play and dry humor to delve into philosophical questions. Thinkers will enjoy diving into The Last Faith.

I was provided an ebook by netgalley in exchange for an honest review. ( )
