About this listen
Transported two thousand years into the past, readers are introduced to Antipas, a Roman civic leader who has encountered the writings of the biblical author Luke. Luke's writings spark Antipas's interest, and a correspondence transpires between them. As the two delve deeply into each other's lives, Antipas begins to see things in fresh ways, causing him to rethink the values upon which his life had been founded. In due course, a gladiatorial contest in Pergamum forces difficult decisions on both the Christians in that city and on Antipas himself.

Takes a bit to get into but well worth it!
I did struggle with the pace and working out who was writing but the book was brilliant and insightful.

Interesting idea and very enjoyable
I listened to this very quickly as it really did draw me in. The premise is of letters being written between different cities in the time of the early church and gives you an idea of how letter writing worked and some of the logistical challenges as well as time involved between writing, delivery and reply. At it's heart though there is a moving story of a journey of faith for the main letter writer and the format of the novel does make this a more interesting story due to the period of time that elapses between letters and the fact that we get snippets of events. The story concludes in a fairly predictable way but felt justified by the narrative and was well earned and satisfying ending. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed it and will probably give it another listen in a few years.

Beautifully Told
A stunning piece of imagined work that really gives an insight as to how the early church might have been. I was surprised by the first couple of chapters and thought it wouldn't be my style of book, but once I locked into it - just wow! Thank you.
