On the Third Day

Summary: A wonderful book
Review: This book would make an excellent film ,except that it would disturb far too many catholics. It's a fascinating novel that test the depths of one's faith in christianity. I highly recommend this book for the faithfull and faithless alike.

Summary: A good read
Review: Whether you are a believer or not, this is certainly a page-turner written with style. Careful plotting and mostly credible characters kept my interest throughout.

It is a deeply Catholic novel, which did't put me off but, as an atheist, didn't convert me either. The major implausiblility in the book, for me, was the conversion of a militant athiest by what I imagine Catholics would call "the divine spirit" or similar. Sorry, I found this bit laughable. The only other blemish in the book is a faint whiff of anti-semitism. But still well worth a read.

Summary: Hoax, a test of faith or a set up?
Review: Whilst excavating a tunnel under the Mosque in Jerusalem a sensational discovery is made. The remains of a crucified man are found. The group of Israeli archaeologist decides it is time to call in the Vatican. The Vatican is not certain it wants part in it, but decides it will be best to have two of their own attest to the discovery.A book that will be difficult to put down. Faith and religious believes are tested all the way through the book. The author's knowledge of Christian and particularly Catholic Theology is vastly demonstrated. Present day events intertwine through the book. Whether a religious person or an atheist, this book is certainly a most for all
