Daniel Maunz is an exceptionally talented writer.
When Dave Randall was younger he wanted to be in the FBI. He worked toward that goal by training for it physically and even pursuing the right education to put himself on the right track. A back injury changed those plans and a career in law became Dave’s Plan-B. While working at a not-so top notch firm, Dave becomes acquainted with a generally misunderstood man named John Manta. The two forge a limited friendship based on mostly shared worldviews and a lack of passion for their unfulfilling work. Things take a dramatic and unexpected turn when John attains Godhood.
Daniel Maunz has a strong legal background that really shines throughout the pages of this unique novel. If you’re interested in legal thrillers, you will really enjoy what is meant to be the more mundane parts of this story. If you’re looking for a book that leads you on a path of self-discovery, Dave’s brush with omniscience through his friend John will leave you with a lot of self-meditation. If you simply want to read a book that deals with lofty ideas but is heavily grounded in reality while including a dash of cynicism and humor, grab a copy of Questions of Perspective. Daniel Maunz is an exceptionally talented writer who has taken on the monumental task of not only asking, but answering some of life’s biggest questions.
