The Bronze Bow by Elizabeth George Speare

2.0

---

This novel about a young Jew who seeks vengeance against the Romans in the time of Christ fell flat for me. Jesus is in a few scenes, but they weren’t poignant enough. He seems to always be fleeing the scene. I was expecting more spirituality and less rebellious plotting. There is a sweet message of love and forgiveness, but it seems to be an aside.
