Beautifully Crafted Retelling of a Timeless Story
By Page Turner on December 26, 2016
Format: Paperback | Verified Purchase
This book was a real eye opener and a must read for anyone interested in the Shroud of Turin. It is a beautifully crafted narrative of the events surrounding the Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the effects of this miracle upon His followers and foes alike. Meticulously researched, this story brings together the Gospel accounts in the Bible and apocryphal works, weaving a compelling tale of the origins of what blossomed into Christianity as we know it today. The traditional cast is all here, The Virgin Mary, Mary Magdalene, the Apostles, even Pontius Pilate, but each is brought to life in new and surprising ways that will challenge readers to rethink much of what they have previously assumed about them. Beyond that, this novel is moving, creative and riveting all at the same time. A real gem!
