By far one of my top 5 favorite books of all time! This novel was masterfully penned and portrayed a very captivating story during the time of the crucifixion and after. The descriptive scenes allowed me to imagine exactly how everything was happening, from the trial to Titus and Abigail in prayer. This novel resonated so much emotion within me as the characters began to explore and delve deeper in their newfound faith in Jesus. This book reminded me so much of the Mark of the Lion series by Francine Rivers... a series that I absolutely LOVED! I will definitely read this book again because I became so enamored with each character... excluding Caius and Caelia of course. I loved this book. I feel that a good book should leave you feeling as if you've lost a family upon finishing it. This is exactly how this book made me feel after I read it. Eventhough life in Abigails time seemed pretty hard for a woman the world Roseanna White describes, the people, the streets and families only makes you want to be there for yourself to be a part of it if only to watch from a distance. Not to mention the love that grows between Abigail and (I will not mention his name so as not to spoil the book) one could only hope to find it too. I would recommend this book to those who love biblibal fiction.
What a journey of pain and redemption this story was--it moved me.
