Too many character names and places.

I don't get why the characters believe that if xxx happened then it changes the fundamentals of all human religions. Event if the story version was true, it doesn't make everything else invalidated. I feel like the author is making assumptions based on personal beliefs and not for plot reasons.

Story is getting better. Had one tender conversation between Daniel and his dad but otherwise the characters aren't that likeable.

Finally some interesting plot development that involves Daniel's mother.

The historical and lingustic aspects of this book are far more interesting than the actual plot. I have zero affection for the main character. The scenes jump around and I'm not feeling any natural flow. Writing is good. Dialogue is natural. Just not feeling invested in the story.
