Legion (Novella)

Synopsis
A genius is hired to recover a camera that can take pictures of the past.

My Thoughts
The MC is a genius, but he can't handle it. So instead of taking responsibility, he makes up imaginary people who CAN do the things he won't.

Some character has created a camera that can take pictures of the past and is trying to prove that the resurrection of Jesus Christ happened. Sadly, Sanderson takes the tack of pitting Faith against Reason instead of the reality of a blending of the two.

I am really sick of people saying that Faith is baseless and is just about a feeling, blah, blah, blah. I wish Sanderson and others of such ilk would go read some C.S.Lewis. But then, they wouldn't accept what he has to say anyway I suspect, as their minds are already made up in what they want to believe. The very charge they claim to bring against others.

Rating: 3 of 5 Stars
