David asked me to communicate his gratitude to the astute bloggers at “So I read this book today…” for their insightful and erudite review of The Cana Mystery. Some favorite lines:

“I have a rule for books that purport to be based upon historical events and places. Teach me something new, something I didn't know and yet will be fascinated enough to research on my own. If this sort of book doesn't have me highlighting on nearly every page, I get bored. The Cana Mystery delivered!”

“As a non-Christian, I was hesitant to start this book, fearing the science and politics of the lands and the history would be unbelievable. Surprisingly, I found the book realistically portrayed – it is a ‘Christian’ book, but not overwhelmingly superstitious, something I found pleasant.”
