The Joshua series was suggested to me by a friend, so I bought the book. Joshua and the City is the only one I've read thus far and I must admit that I don't know if I'm willing to read any more. The premis of the book is fantastic...Christ on Earth...it could make a great story...however, the writing is terrible. The way these inner city kids talk is not very convincing, they talk with more proper English than I do...and I've found several editing mistakes throughout the book. Great story...very poor writing and editing.
