“Wow! I am so impressed when a (relatively) new author creates such a compelling, exciting and potentially controversial novel. The action is non-stop, the locations are intriguing and the characters are appealing. There is tension, romance, harrowing escape after harrowing escape all weaved within a story that captures your interest and keeps you guessing until the very end when you are floored by a surprise hook followed by an even more unexpected uppercut of an ending.”

I can see why this might be controversial. It is really fascinating how the story shifts back and forth between modern day and ancient times. The author presents the historical figures as actual flesh and blood people rather than as just the savior and traitor depicted in the Gospels. If you are deeply religious you might find this aspect of the …
Now I see why they say it is controversial. This book keeps you turning the pages in the quest for the truth. Great characters, action packed.
Made you think – what if.”
This book is disturbing even if I wasn’t a Christian.
Very entertaining and thought provoking – not for those whose religious beliefs are easily offended.
Interesting premise. Realistic if you accept the premise
Action packed and unpredictable. Good read.
I wanted something mindless to read while on the elliptical, but this was less than mindless. Had to quit reading half way through because the bad science, bad history, immature relationships, and bad religion was all just too stupid to bear.
Very different regarding the 30 pieces of silver. Intriguing.
Controversial indeed. Iconoclastic. Even as a work of fiction, this will be upsetting to devout Christians whose faith rests only on resurrection. It will force you to think, which is a good thing.
So, where’s the controversy?
Was very entertaining – offered a distraction from the daily grind (which is what I needed). Action packed with believable characters-
Good read.
Couldn’t be bothered to finish it!!
Interesting story. “DaVinci Code” light.
A great set of characters, and interesting twists and turns in the plot.
I can’t say I liked it, I had trouble following it sometimes, however that being said, it presents some speculation to what could have happened.
Well written fantasy loosely based on historical facts.
For anyone that likes Davinci Code and Indiana Jones.
Action packed but a unique concept about the last days and the life of Christ. Judas has a different role too. I enjoyed its different presentation of what we r taught
