"The Challenge of Easter" was written by a New Testament historian who's also a bishop (in the Eastern Orthodox Church, I think). This book is more for professing Christians than unbelievers.

This was a just a teaser as far as I'm concerned. The length of this one may be a plus to some but I think it comes with a price. The short length (62 pages) and brevity of the book doesn't allow Wright to dive as deep into the claims made nor does it give the reader the chance to experience the level of engagement that I believe Wright offers in other books. I would recommend reading Simply Christian or Surprised By Hope rather than this one.
