Son of Man by Yi Mun-YolMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Tempted to give it 5 stars. Maybe I'll see how I feel about it after some time has passed. It starts off as a detective novel but becomes more of a voyage into various gnostic-like apocrypha theories. All quite interesting, although toward the end it really started losing me. I loved his discussions on why evil had to exist and how he looks at some of the stories of the Gospels from different points of view. And it made me read up on "The Wandering Jew".
The detective part of the novel falls pretty flat, however, and it pretty easy to figure out.
