The New York Times-bestselling author of Elizabeth I brilliantly reimagines the story of the most mysterious woman in the Bible

Was Mary Magdalene a prostitute, a female divinity figure, a church leader, or all of those? Biblical references to her are tantalizingly brief, but we do know that she was the first person to whom the risen Christ appeared—and the one commissioned to tell others the good news, earning her the ancient honorific, "Apostle to the Apostles." Today, Mary continues to spark controversy, curiosity, and veneration. In a vivid re-creation of Mary Magdalene's life story, Margaret George convincingly captures this renowned woman's voice as she moves from girlhood to womanhood, becomes part of the circle of disciples, and comes to grips with the divine. Grounded in biblical scholarship and secular research, this fascinating historical novel is also, ultimately, "the diary of a soul."

I have listened to this for around 7 hours, now and would normally have waited until the end until I wrote this, but the narration is irritating me, because the narration lacks emotion. It is the intonations where you would expect a lilt downwards to express these it goes upwards like a little song. It may be how I have been conditioned to expect what I hear in the way people talk about what happens to them. The story itself is good, and the voice change for the different characters helps distinguish them when they are conversing. I just cant 'feel' it. Some emotional situations within the story you would expect this expression in the voice, but the narration runs on rather like skipping down the road. Perhaps I will get used to it as I read on and bypass my expectations.

Good Story
