This review was written for LibraryThing Early Reviewers.
Brilliant, original, and engaging. This is a Christian novel with a wonderful premise that takes the reader through major events of early history. Although written as a double plot, one current and one historical that culminate at the end; the book is more like an intriguing collection of short stories in different ancient cultures. Each chapter is well written and takes the reader right to the time and place of the scene. In the end, it remains a story of good versus evil, but getting there is great fun.
Wayward Son is not deep theology, it's not heavy philosophy (unless you wish to make it so, I guess), and it won't become the next Pilgrims Progress. Wayward Son is a delightful journey with some great twists, turns, and tales. Enjoy the stories, enjoy the journey.
