Read the bible and tell me he's wrong. Poor characterization, wandering plot, endless instructions stuffed into the middle of irrelevant chapters, many cases of the main character "God" supporting and encouraging crimes like rape and murder, and it's soooooo long. Brevity is the soul of wit, disciples! Get your shit together and learn to edit.
Thanks for always watching out for me Satan!
Ma boi beelz has my back
It's also more of an anthology but the editor clearly didn't do their job. You've got a book of fables right next to a genealogy list. Later on there's literally 4 versions of the same damn story. And then they jammed some fanfic writers apocalyptic crap at the end.
Also 3 of the versions describe the crucifixion as Christ being tied to the cross, only one of them said anything about being nailed to the cross.
Seeing it described like this, I wonder if we'll ever see an edited version that's organized more like LOTR. Throw the genealogy crap and miscellaneous garbage into a seperate book you can choose to look at if you want, and throw the main stories into their own books.
The Prophet, or There and Back Again, and Back Again. A Jewish Tale by Moses
The King of the Jews
Honestly, I bet a good fiction writer could do this really well and it'd make a lot of money. I don't know if you aim for actual religious people or make it as a parody though.
