This is the 10th consecutive Jeremy Robinson book that I've read, all as part of gearing up for Project Legion. I've had a great time; all of his books are a lot of fun. Until now. This was absolutely horrible. Time travel is my favorite genre, so I was really looking forward to this, even though it was going to be set during biblical times. As an atheist / former christian I really didn't have any desire to read a religious book. But after reading 9 books by the author, I felt pretty confident that it would be just another adventure set in the middle east.
Nope.
There were multiple discussions about how great the world is now because of Jesus. I was expecting there to be some twist about Jesus - perhaps he was an alien? another time traveler? Maybe the twist would be that the question about Jesus' divinity would remain unseen, unanswered, unclear?
Sadly, no. This was a blatant christian story written espressly to show the author's religious views. If this had been the first Jeremy Robinson book I'd read it would've been the last. As it is, I'm seriously having second thoughts about reading any more, and I have 20 of his books in my to-read list.
Putting aside the religious aspect, this is also a book in bad need of an editor. As others here have mentioned, it was filled with mispellings and plot holes that any decent editor would've caught.
All in all a huge disappointment from an author I was really enjoying. ( )

This continues to be one of my favorite books from Robinson, and indeed it was the very first book of his I ever read - I've now read all but less than a handful. Yes, it was that good that it got me hooked for about four dozen books over the last decade. You really can't go wrong with this book - even if you're not a Christian. It is simply an amazing story that has stood the test of time. (And hey... maybe it could yet be used in his Avengers Level Event he recently kicked off in another book...) ( )

An interesting twist on an old fairytale. ( )

I actually really enjoyed this book. I wasn't familiar with Jeremy Robinson before this book, so given the topic of Christianity of the book, I had no idea if he was a "Christian" author or someone using the Christian story as a plot line.

Honestly, I'm still not sure of the answer, but as a Christian, I found this book to be completely enjoyable. Calling this book "Christian-Scifi" would be an insult to sci-fi. There are certain elements of science in the book (just read the description) but it is extremely surface-level.

Overall, I would highly recommend this book to anyone at all curious about Jesus. For non-believers and believers alike, this is an enjoyable tale. ( )

The idea of the story and the context of the story were really fantastic. However, I believe that the character of Tom was rather malicious in his attempt to discredit Jesus. Sure he said he was a non-believer and he was angry about his wife's death, but what was the point of time traveling back to the time of Christ and making an ass of himself? He had this wonderful technology available to him and he wasted it like this. The two scientists also didn't seem as concerned with changing history after they got there than they did before they went. ( )
