3.0 out of 5 stars Religious Fiction, Aug 28 2001
This review is from: The silver chalice (Hardcover)
This book gives you an inside view of the Luke and Paul and the other apostles as they struggle to give Jesus' church life. It talks about the danger they were in and the predjudice they faced. I read it before an exam in religion to help me understand the new testament better...it worked! The story follows a young man who was illegally enslaved and then had his freedom purchased by Luke so that he could produce a silver chalice with the likeness of all of the prophets. In order to do so he has to travel around to their lectures and speeches, stay in their homes and become friends with them. It is very insightful. A nice long book, that should keep you busy for quite a few hours of reading time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Attention keeper, Sep 28 2000
This review is from: The silver chalice (Hardcover)
This book is long but worth every bit. When I read it I can't put it down (and I've read it several times!). The characters and plot are indepth and believable. This book gives me a window into another world. I would definitely recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Different View, Oct 4 2005
By 
This review is from: Silver Chalice (Paperback)
I read this book for an Independent Study selection in Grade Ten. I thought that the author gave a different view from anything I'd ever learned about in regards to Jesus the person, but also what others had to endure at that time.

I loved the character Basil, I loved the landscape depicted in his writing, and I loved the book.
