Title: Typical Lawhead
Review: I was disappointed in Lawhead's attempt to "reform" Pelagius. While it is true that all we know about his teaching comes from his enemies, his enemies were people like Saint Augustine so.... At any rate, history seems to teach that Patrick was not Pelagian. Nevertheless I greatly enjoyed the book. Patrick emerges as a real person and not a stick-figure "saint", but I wish his Christianity was a little more evident in the story. There is no real conversion experience. Lawhead made us believe he was building up to one. But the very end is typical Lawhead and very satisfying. I recommend the book highly.
