I received a free ebook for this review and will do the best that I can to be honest here. The book follows Lazarus Christos, the returned Christ, as he grows up. The previous book covered his birth.  The Bible states that Jesus "increased in wisdom and stature." (Luke 2:52a) So, I find it interesting to ponder what Jesus could have learned and what he would learn if he lived today. This book has us follow him as he spends time with the ark of God and travels around the world in attempt to find the "truth."  He meets a large variety of people during his travels who have heard prophecies about his arrival. While evil people in the Catholic church's hierarchy are working to kill Lazarus and take over the world. The mysteriousness of the evil mastermind known only as "Sire" is intriguing to me.As long as a person can keep his/her theology separate from their Christian fiction, I would recommend this book to them. I say this because Lazarus is discovering a "truth" that is different than what the Bible teaches. I gave it three stars because it felt slow in some areas. However, I suspect the most exciting part of the story is still ahead in this series.
