This was an odd book. I tried to NOT view it with a religious eye but it was hard since I know the story of Jesus' death. It is told from the other side- from the Roman army side WITH A TWIST! DO NOT read this book if you are easily offended by supposition, fiction, horror, or anything that you might view as blasphemy. That being said, it was not a bad book. Vampires (old vampires) play a huge role in the death of Christ but it is done behind the scenes so that when it plays out, the Jews look like the guilty party. Without giving away too much, it was somewhat gory in parts and sad in parts. The only thing I found lacking was the ending. It was left open- perhaps for a sequel? I don't know. But I did finish it with about 100 questions and I really wanted it not to end just yet.
