I promised you a review of The Dice Man, so I will give you a short one here.

The dice man leads you into a world where nothing is right, but when you read this book you will have the opinion that everything is done with a good thought. Something was manipulating me to believe that it was right to act in different kind of ways even though it was not.

What really caught my interest must be that the main character, Luke Rhinehart, was a really random man. He made the dice to his God and lived after them. “Oh holy die, let thy will be done” was some of the words he used when he prayed to the dice.

One of the differences between this book and any other book I’ve read is that I don’t have a clue about what Luke Rhinehart looks like or any other fact about him or the environment. There’s very few details about this and it’s very interesting because it forces you to imagine what he looks like. A book always describes things very much, but the only thing I remember that Luke said about himself was that he was fat. Other books would explain how beautiful the hair was, how much make up the women wear, what color the couch was and so on, but this book did’nt. Except from that the whole book was different from other books. I can’t compare it with the books I’ve read earlier in my life, because this one is very special.

The author, Luke Rhinhart (real name is probably George Cockcroft. You never know after reading this book) is writing very well and even though he doesn’t describe the environment, he actually gives a good picture of everything around. The book can be a little bit confusing sometimes and you will just stand up, read the last page thrice and still say “what?”, but it’s just because he’s writing so fun, so interesting, so randomly. You will get shocked in some parts, you will feel so stressed that you don’t know what to do and you will laugh so much that the tears is streaming down your face.

I would like to tell you so much more about this book, but I don’t know what to say. There’s too many things to talk about and I don’t want to destroy your reading, if you choose to read it. I really recommend this book, because it gave me such a good feeling in the stomach even though Luke Rhinehart is a very weird man. Weird is good, isn’t it?
