An extremely fair review of my book from Josh Riley over at blog.worship.com. He rightly takes me to task for not talking to more fans but is mostly positive. Here’s an interesting bit:

You probably won’t find this volume in your local Christian bookstore, and our online sales affiliate does not carry it; nonetheless, the perspectives presented in this book are not without merit, and it is helpful to see the industry through the eyes of one who is outside the faith, whose view of Jesus is largely influenced by those involved one way or another in the modern (or post-modern?) CCM industry.

I haven’t talked about this on the site yet, but while I’m not surprised that my book isn’t carried by most Christian retailers (there is profanity in it, all quoted for what it’s worth), I continue to be baffled that the majority of Christian-media attention to this book has come from blogs and smaller zines. I can’t help but wonder why Christianity Today is the only major Christian publication to do anything on a mass-market book about Christian music. I’d be happy to entertain theories in the comments section.
