July 14, 2012 - PRLog -- James M. Becher has recently revised and expanded his exciting historical (Biblical) fiction novel "OF SUCH IS THE KINGDOM, A Novel of Biblical Times" to include PART III, POWER AND PERSECUTION, (the sequel,) which deals with the early church.  PART III IS now available as an e-book by itself
If you have already read Parts I&II ("OF SUCH IS THE KINGDOM, A Novel of Biblical Times), or have listened to the audio-book on Podiobooks.com it's time to get the sequel. PART III will NOT be made into an audio-book for Podiobooks, so the only way to find out what happened next is to get the e-book from Samashwords at  https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/178438 OR on Kindle at:http://www.amazon.com/ebook/dp/B009HUTV8Q/ref=sr_1_3?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1350571577

This novel is the sequel to "OF SUCH IS THE KINGDOM, A Novel of Biblical Times" and employs those characters who were still alive at the end of Part II and adds some new ones. Did Claressa embrace Manaheem's new-found faith? What happened to the bereaved family of Benjamin? Did Joseph, the oldest son get to go to Rabbi school? Did Barabbas continue to follow the master and did his wife and children join him? And was Pontius Pilate able to forget about his decision to crucify Jesus and did he become the strong ruler his wife wanted him to be? These and other questions are answered in this volume.
The new characters added include Saul, who becomes Paul, Herod Agrippa, the nephew of Herod Antipas, who wants to take over the latter's territory, and Caligula, the crazy son of Emperor Tiberius and friend of Agrippa. Against the background of suspicion and treachery within the empire and disdain for and persecution of the new faith, the Church continues to grow and flourish.
Follow the travels of Manaheem as he tries in vain to convert the two Herods. Follow the machinations of Herod Agrippa in his aim to take over his uncle's territory. Follow the foibles of Pilate as he seeks to become a stronger ruler, while still regretting his decision to crucify Jesus.
Follow the new life of Barabbas and his family. Follow the lives of Benjamen's family as they cope and deal with their loss and the now seeming impossibility of Joseph's schooling. Will he get to go to Rabbi school and what will it mean for their future?   But mainly follow the early church as it grows in spite of persecution.
