  • "The birth of Jesus has been well chronicled, as have his glorious teachings, acts, and divine sacrifice after his thirtieth birthday. But no one knows about the early life of the Son of God, the missing years -- except Biff, the Messiah's best bud, who has been resurrected to tell the story in the divinely hilarious yet heartfelt work "reminiscent of Vonnegut and Douglas Adams" (Philadelphia Inquirer). Verily, the story Biff has to tell is a miraculous one, filled with remarkable journeys, magic, healings, kung fu, corpse reanimations, demons, and hot babes. Even the considerable wiles and devotion of the Savior's pal may not be enough to divert Joshua from his tragic destiny. But there's no one who loves Josh more -- except maybe "Maggie," Mary of Magdala -- and Biff isn't about to let his extraordinary pal suffer and ascend without a fight."@en

  • "En l'an 2000, Jésus ressuscite un ami d'enfance, Biff, seul témoin de sa jeunesse. L'ange Raziel ramène Biff à la vie et il commence la rédaction de son récit, différent des Evangiles. Le petit Joshua, doté de pouvoirs de guérison, apprend à dix ans par l'ange de l'Annonciation, arrivé en retard, qu'il est le fils de Dieu et doit retrouver les Mages qui ont un message pour lui. Il part avec Biff."
  • "Hundreds of thousands of people around the world have read́and reread́Christopher Moore's irreverent, iconoclastic, and divinely funny tale of the early life of Jesus Christ as witnessed by his boyhood pal Levi bar Alphaeus (a.k.a. Biff). Now, in this special (check out the cool red ribbon marker, gilt-edged pages, and gold lettering) gift edition of Christopher Moore's bestselling Lamb , you, too, can find out what really happened between the manger and the Sermon on the Mount. And, in a new afterword written expressly for this edition, Christopher Moore addresses some of the most frequently asked questions he's received from readers since Lamb's initial publication, about the book and himself. Fresh, funny, poignant, and wise, this special gift edition of Lamb is cause for rejoicing among readers everywhere."

  • "Im Buch der Bücher fehlen einige Kapitel: Grund genug, einen Mann namens Levi bar Alphaeus, kurz Biff, aus seinem nun schon fast 2000 Jahre währenden Todessschlaf zu wecken. Unter den wachsenden Augen von Engel Raziel soll Biff alles über die turbulente Jugend von Josua, auch unter dem Namen Jesus H. Christus bekannt, berichten. Denn Biff ist der einzige glaubenswürdige Zeuge dieser Zeit. Er stand dem jungen Messias schon zur Seite, als dieser noch versuchte, vertrocknete Eidechsen zum Leben zu erwecken."
