Title: Disappointing!
Product review: Having just finished the book, I was very disappointed in the novel. I was expecting much more. Mr. Wangerin portrays Paul/Saul of Tarsus as a tiny little man, with bandy legs and a head too large for his body, who ran about like a mad mad. this completely ruined the story for me. I realize it was fictional, but at the same time, I can't imagine the man, the roman, the Jew, the Pharisee, the one man who exerted such a wide influence on the worlds affairs, and Christian affairs, to be as he is described here in this horrid tale. Chritianity needed such a man as Saul, and the world needed such a mind. I do believe that he preached Christ crucified with a passion, and he did stir up the people. But not as the character described in this book.If you have held the Apostle Paul, in your heart, as the great preacher of the Gospel that he was. Don't waste your time on this work.
