Complete, First published Jul 25, 2020
The First Jewish-Roman War (A.D. 66-73) retold in a novel feeling.
     The stories surrounding Jerusalem and its final years are given as clearly as possible for this book, and as entertaining as possible, too. Hence why the book is presented in a casual manner, to make the stories easier to grasp than a mere formality. Learn how the Sicarii, Romans, Sadducees, and early Christians are involved in this war (or not at all in the case of the Christians).
     The book also recounts the lives of people before and during the war: such as Messiah Jesus of Nazareth, Emperor Nero, Apostles Paul and James the Just, High Priests Ananias and Ananus Ben Ananus, Governor (and later historian) Josephus, Zealot leaders John of Gischala and Simon bar Giora, and Generals (and later emperors) Vespasian and Titus.
     In general, this is a Christian book, which aims to put Jesus in his respectful place.

The Stranger of Galilee by becky_flower
23 parts Complete
Holding her breath, Claudia lay her head down against the ground and willed herself to be somewhere else. Anywhere else. When she had desired more adventure in her life, this was not at all what she meant! While the garden they were in was beautiful, with uniform, perfectly dispersed trees that let the evening sun shine through with a heavenly golden light, and well-kept paths for anyone to walk, Claudia wished she was enjoying the scenery as a visitor, rather than a fugitive. She could not see Lucius at all from her position, but she could hear him as he moved like a panther through the garden, the rustle of grass his only giveaway. What was he planning to do? Did he have a plan at all? For a long, long time, the garden remained silent. In fact, Claudia was about ready - nay, desperate - to stand up and look around, when from a distance she heard a shout, the clinking of swords, a terrible 'squish' sound, then nothing at all. ** Follow the journey of two distinguished members of the Roman Empire, during the time of Christ's ministry on the earth as they discover the true meanings of 'love', and 'sacrifice'... ** This story switches between two points of view, the switches marked clearly by '***'. This story does not contradict teachings of the Bible, but merely shows the happenings of Jesus' death, burial and resurrection from a different perspective. I hope you enjoy the read, and learn something new about our wonderful God! *If you enjoyed this book please also read it's short story spin off, 'The Traitor Inside'. Thank you!*

CONFRONTING RELIGIOUS FANATICISM by steveshear
1 part Complete Mature
CRF tells the story of Ira and the fanatic fringes of Western Religion. I AM OFFERING ANYONE INTERESTED A PDF OF THE FIRST 175 PAGES, SUBTITLED AN EYE FOR AN EYE. This PDF focuses on Rebecca, a young woman caught between the religious roots of the family's orthodoxy and the man she loves, an atheist. After choosing her lover rather than the son of the family's Rabbi, she is driven into her own hell by the revengeful Rabbi. This is the same Rabbi who claims to have the ear of God and who in fact is the mastermind manipulator behind her guilt in this explosive triangle overrun with sexual indiscretions, secrets, and retribution; and it has its own ending apart from the rest of this overall story. If you are interested, let me know. If you want the other installments, I will send them to you. You will find a brief synopsis of the entire manuscript below. Any questions? Email me. Steve Shear steveshear@gmail.com www.steveshear.net Synopsis CRF utilizes three sections and first-person accounts to describe the journey of Ira Neebest from birth until he returns from the jungles of India after being kidnapped by ISIS and the Iranian Ayatollah for writing a Nobel Prize winning novel about the evils of religious orthodoxy (Ira Neebest and The First Coming). On this journey we learn about Rebecca, Ira's mother, who is constantly doing battle with guilt driving forces in her own Hasidic background (An Eye for an Eye). And we love Natalie, Ira's wife, who as a child is abandoned by her parents at a Catholic boarding school. She is raped not once but twice by a priest with a rotting black heart, putrid breath, and wandering hands and is subsequently accused of bludgeoning him to death. As an adult, she is used by the Iranians to capture Ira and winds up in a coma (Break Hearts & Hungry Bears).
