This was a good book, and could very well be set today with all the foolishness we have going on in DC. Yes, there is a lot of Christian ideology and biblical references and scripture quotes. so what? The characters in the story were devout Christians, big deal. I’m not sure why some of the others who rated this book poorly were so offended by that. There were also a lot of really great quotes from the Founding Fathers in the book. I thought the story was good and the narration was great. If Christian ideology and scriptures or Founders quotes offend you, then snowflake past this book, but if you can handle that, pick it up because I think you’ll enjoy it. I’m going to get the next book in the series.
