I'll start, so as a teen I stumbled across a book called," Someone comes to town, someone leaves town." The synopsis caught me as it's about a man with a mountain as a fathera washing machine as a mother and one brother that is dead and trying to harm him. I'll admit some of the technical terms were too much for my developing mind but it has stuck with me all these years.

What is the wackiest / craziest book you've read and did you enjoy the ride?

Aztec by Garry Jennings, it's historical fiction chronicling a man's life at the height of the Aztec Empire. He is in his 60s when the Spanish arrive. It's an absolute mind boggling adventure full of graphic depictions of his less than kosher life experiences. Drugs, sex, war, slavery, human sacrifice, and so much more it is not for the faint of heart. It's actually the first of a trilogy but it's sequels pale in comparison. Besides The Yahweh's Breath Bible (which makes most modern English Bibles look watered down if not out and out lies) Aztec is the coolest story I've ever read by a wide margin. But if you want to read a book that will change your world view then The Yahweh's Breath Bible will rock your world. Genesis 2:1" Completed was the lofty sky visible as an arch in which the clouds move and the firm Earth with all the masses of creation were ready like an army for the war of Hardship and worship" All the Gods are real and Yahweh is fighting a war against them all where people are the chess pieces.

I'm an Aztec evangelist. It's such a banger! I didn't think it was a weird book at all though.
