The book appears to be as good as the preview in the storefront implied.

    It’s 40% off so you can’t beat the price. If it goes back to regular price you won’t be able to get it at this price even with a coupon.

    This is one awesome resource! It’s brand new so there aren’t any reviews, but what other authors are saying and after reading the background introduction it’s a great book to have! It’s cheaper than the kindle version right now, so don’t wait for any coupons. You can’t beat this price 👍😁👌

    I guess. I spent quite a bit of time with it, and moved on. I think the main issue (for me) was how organized. It's driven by the author's classification-outline (so far so good), but then when a subject gets discussed, it's limited within the ascribed sources (sounds ok, until you use it). For example, demonology sticks within the ascribed sources; doesn't try to deal with the aramaic culture, etc. Angelology lists off the sources and light description; doesn't attempt the Saduccees.

    I'd say it's a good search candidate and AI summarization destination.
