The Last Testament

A Memoir

De: God, David Javerbaum

Narrado por: David Javerbaum

***NOW A MAJOR BROADWAY SHOW STARRING JIM PARSONS (THE BIG BANG THEORY) AND DIRECTED BY JOE MANTELLO (WICKED)***

Over the course of his long and distinguished career, God has literally seen it all. And not just seen. In fact, the multitalented deity has played a pivotal role in many major events, including the Creation of the universe, the entirety of world history, and the successful transitioning of American Idol into the post–Simon Cowell era. Sometimes preachy, sometimes holier-than-thou, but always lively, The Last Testament is the ultimate celebrity autobiography.

The Testament Everybody Needs

This book is a masterpiece of comedic literature. I couldn't put it down and laughed so much I would read it again and again.

David Javerbaum does his work justice by voicing Jehovah; he's charming, funny, and easy to anger... Everything you want in an almighty!

Not necessarily for the bible thumper but anybody religious or not should listen to this fantastic take from the big G himself on the old and new testaments of the bible (with a bit of the Koran thrown in for good measure of course)!

Great and very funny

What made the experience of listening to The Last Testament the most enjoyable?

That I didn't have to read the book. Love the idea of listening to someone else reading it to me like having some one reading a bed time story.

What other book might you compare The Last Testament to and why?

Really not sure I haven't read any other book to compare it to other than the Bible.

Which character – as performed by David Javerbaum – was your favorite?

Not sure

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Took one day for first part finished the second in one say.

Any additional comments?

Just a great book. Will think about getting the full membership for other books.

Great listen, could have been shorter

I really enjoyed David Javerbaum's (er God's) last ebook. And very much enjoyed most of this one. Once he started counting down the days to the apocalypse, it seemed a bit redundant. I do enjoy learning new things because I was never one to want to spend the time reading the entire bible. I will continue to look for new material from the author. Great cover too!!

Starts good ...but...

Where does The Last Testament rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

The book does not rank that high at all. I knew about the book when it was in print, however I waited for the audio book.

What was most disappointing about David Javerbaum (contributor)’s story?

The story started off great, however it just started getting ridiculous. I just had to stop listening to it.. it was that bad.

Which character – as performed by David Javerbaum – was your favorite?

n/a

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

not at all.

Any additional comments?

The story started great! The author was great in description and story line. I think it was when the story got into the part where God was getting married that it was just off the wall. At that point, I had a hard time staying focused on the book and it was just getting more ridiculous at that point. I just stopped. I didn't even get to the second part of the book.

Requires the right sense of humor

I read this 10 years ago when it first came out. I thought it was HILARIOUS! Listening to it again in 2021-2022, I realized there is a lot that is insensitive. There are still plenty of good-humored laughs, some pieces of wisdom, and good prompts for reflection on Judeo-Christian faith.
