Dass er jemals im Himmel landen könnte, damit hat David nicht gerechnet. Und jetzt schon gar nicht! Er muss unbedingt zur Erde zurück! Da gibt ihm Gott eine Chance: Er fordert ihn zu einer Debatte heraus und David findet so viele Argumente wie die Ewigkeit Tage hat... Noch ahnt er nicht, dass Gott ihn nur auf die Probe stellen wollte. Denn David hatte einen Unfall. Den hat er - überlebt!
I don't hate this book nor do I like this book. It was a boring book overall, but wasn't boring in a bad sort of way, more like confusing. The story was more focus on the relationship between David (a high school jock) and Marie (a nerd). How they resolve their conflicting issues of the typical high school stereotypes between high school popular kids and nerds after they got involved in an accident. The debate he had with god was quickly dismissed in the story despite the title of the book. I thought that the debate was supposed to be the huge portion of the story. Funny thing was that David was more interested in debating with Marie rather than God. I felt that the two teenagers squabbled more with each other than the scene David had with god. Maybe they should change the title to David v. Marie or High school Jock vs the nerdy girl or something. Book titles can fool you sometimes and David v.God is one of them.
This book was recommended by my son after he found it on the shelf in the library. He and I both enjoyed the story of a boy debating God over returning to Earth after an accident sent the boy to heaven.
Strong voice with many uplifting ideas communicated with humor, but the theology is not what one would call orthodox. Heaven is a sort of celestial theme park with all the time in the world. Everyone gets there eventually. First novel.
