This historical novel set in Ancient Rome is something to read when you have the time and patience for the heavy descriptive blocks, and the "thees" and "thous" that fill the dialog. That was the style when the book was written, to have people from the past speak more formally than the present.
Writers have long enjoyed imagining how Christianity made its way around the Empire and into the palaces of the Emperors, up to the time when the Emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the empire. This is one such novel.
