   Do you know "The Distant Savior"? Have you read "The Way of Heaven"? While reading this novel, what came to mind was "The Way of Heaven"—not in terms of content, but in its sharpness and the thought-provoking questions it evoked. The story is set in the 1980s, but it satirizes the present era. The writing is smooth and the logic clear. Although the rating isn't high, I won't accept it as a reason for refutation. Perhaps the low rating is intentionally given to protect its authenticity.
