Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal

by Christopher Moore

Overview

Everyone knows about the immaculate conception and the crucifixion. But what happened to Jesus between the manger and the Sermon on the Mount? In this hilarious and bold novel, the acclaimed Christopher Moore shares the greatest story never told: the life of Christ as seen by his boyhood pal, Biff.

Just what was Jesus doing during the many years that have gone unrecorded in the Bible? Biff was there at his side, and now after two thousand years, he shares those good, bad, ugly, and miraculous times. Screamingly funny, audaciously fresh, Lamb rivals the best of Tom Robbins and Carl Hiaasen, and is sure to please this gifted writer’s fans and win him legions more.

[Moore’s] most ambitious book.

I haven’t finished reading [LAMB] yet, but I’ve managed to laugh myself to tears on more than one occasion.

Rocky Mountain News

An instant classic . . . terrific, funny and poignant.
