A Canticle for Leibowitz

[webwizard333]

What a great book. I read it for English, and at first I thought it was ok, an interesting idea, but poorly done. Then my teacher took us into the symbolism of the book and I came to really love it. And the irony in the end if you catch onto the big secret is hilarious.

Second Coming of Christ finally comes around, but everyone's either dead or left the Earth.

I also feel it really defends Christian beliefs concerning euthanasia and temptation of pain very well and makes them easier to understand for the reader. All in all, a fun book that makes one think.
