The Acts of a Pagan Jew

Here is history - from the Crucifixion to the fall of Jerusalem - seen through the eyes of a young Jewish arena-cleaner who is placed by Chance in the very womb of Christianity at the very heart of Imperial Rome. In this prophecy-driven tale of love longing and revenge meet Paul of Tarsus (St. Paul) the gospelers Mark and Luke Pontius Pilate Caligula the generals Vespasian and Titus three notorious Greek anti-Semites - and some remarkable women. Accompany Paul on the road to Damascus and share his last voyage. Witness the burning of Nero's Rome the horrors of the Roman/Jewish war the life and death of a great black gladiator and seated beside Caligula observe the strange encounter between a man named Androcles and a lion.
