Maximus

A Novel

De: Richard L. Black

Narrado por: Adam Verner

A sweeping Christian fiction epic, Maximus is part mystery, part detective story, and filled with intrigue.

General Maximus is a battle-weary commander of one of Rome's finest legions. When he returns from a long, bloody campaign, he finds himself questioning his life. Word has reached Rome of a man named Jesus, who is causing a stir in faraway Judea. Maximus, disguised as a Jew, is sent to investigate the situation and assess his potential threat to Rome. In this innovative rendering of the story of Christ, we see Jesus from the perspective of an outsider. Stripped of his cultural identity, Maximus is therefore free to ponder whether he can believe Jesus and find a new purpose in his own life.

Amazing

Loved this book! Seeing the effect Jesus had on one with no real understanding of Jewish religion or culture, was enough to bring tears to my eyes.

A Beautiful Story of our Savior

I only wish they would have included more dialogue with Jesus.
It was great to look at a few of the Romans as compassionate people.
I will always be eternally grateful for the birth and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Loved it!!!

Amazing story!! The ministry of Christ through the perspective of a Roman is beyond words!!!

Narrator very good

Great story! easy to listen.

Commander sounds like Michael Dorn Worf on Star Trek Next Generation.

Great Story!
