Review: The Minister and the Murderer

The Minister and the Murderer The Minister and the Murderer by Stuart Kelly
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The Minister and the Murderer.

Quite the title really, catching and intriguing. But I felt a little let down by it really. Sure it touches heavily on the church and on religion, but I found that it only touched about Nelson lightly and about the man. I had bee expecting it to tell you more of Nelson's life story, of who he was as a person, more on his crime and more about how he became a minister.
But in reality, the author focuses more on the religious side of things and relies on the text of the bible quite a bit. Although not really my kind of book, I was quite intrigued to see how it turned out and powered my way through all of the pages, even when I felt like it was draining my soul.
