Empire's End by Jerry B. Jenkins

In November, I covered a book called I, Saul by Jerry B. Jenkins, and said that I felt like it was possibly a part 1 of a 2-part series, only I couldn't find the second book, I, Paul (published in 2014). That's because it appears the series got a re-vamp and book 2 (I say this loosely, as it could be a stand alone) is actually Empire's End. 

Written in 1st person, as if from the perspective of Paul, this fictional memoir follows Saul of Tarsus from childhood, through his education under Gamaliel in Jerusalem, his persecution of the early church, his conversion, his 3 years in Arabia, and the beginning of his early ministry. It's an interesting read, as long as the reader keeps in mind that it is fiction (as is good practice with all Biblical fiction). And it could easily lead into a part 3, although I can't find evidence of one's existence yet.

I enjoyed this book, as it explored something I'd never seen depicted before, so I definitely wanted to share it with you. If you like Biblical fiction, I recommend this book. Click here to find it on Amazon!
