Book of God: The Bible as a novel

'Immensely readable.' - Belfast Telegraph 'Exhilarating.' - Christianity Today 'Imaginative, stimulating and fresh... Above all, the work of a craftsman.' - Glasgow Herald

'My purpose and effort in writing this 'holy history' was always to persuade the reader to feel - to experience, in fact and in spirit - this, the greatest of stories.'

This innovative, dramatic and highly readable retelling of the Bible - from the Creation to the Acts of the Apostles - in the style of an epic novel has sold 1.5 million copies worldwide. Reading like a great historical novel, The Book of God dramatizes the sweep of biblical events, making the men and women of this ancient book come alive in vivid detail and dialogue. From Abraham wandering in the desert to Jesus teaching the multitudes on a Judean hillside, The Book of God follows the biblical story in chronological order.

This blockbuster is now being reissued with a striking new cover for the 21st century.
