Review: Less action packed than the previous book, but a good setup for what's to come

I was recently given a copy of The Re-Awakening by the author free of charge to review.  This is the second book in Vance’s Second Coming series and continues the story of Lazarus Christos, the reborn Christ who has come to battle evil in the end of days.  Like its predecessor, The Return (see my review) it is a mystery thriller in the vein of say Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code.Being the second in a series, The Re-Awakening is more setup and less action packed than the first book.  One of the characters described the conflict as a chess match - this book is where the players are putting their pieces into place and are preparing for the final battle.  That is an excellent analysis of the book.  I continued to find the characters and concept interesting and will probably read the next book to see what happens next.I gave The Re-Awakening three and a half stars out of five
