"Entertaining and Illuminating" -- Rodney Stark, author of The Triumph of Christianity.The Nicaea Trilogy is a collection of three historical novellas with a common theme under one cover. The trilogy tells the story of a rare, ancient codex that becomes the object of a relentless quest that spans time and place in history. Readers will join with a cast of characters, real and imagined, who are determined to possess the priceless Christian book. This fascinating tale is told against a backdrop of conflict and persecution in the days of the Roman Empire -- from the Fall of Jerusalem in AD 70 to the Council of Nicaea in 325. An epilogue, set in the early 20th century, brings closure to the quest that will both surprise and satisfy you. The Nicaea Trilogy includes a note to readers that presents a brief history of the codex, and a copy of the Nicene Creed used Christians around the world today. "This is an impressively creative book. Warren Lamb blends history with believable fiction to craft plots that are well designed and fluently told. If the art of writing good fiction is "a good story well told," he does it. I read his earlier book, based on the book of Acts, and this one is just as engaging. Well done!" -- Clinton M. "Warren Lamb knows how to spin a story so that you feel immersed in it fully and can't tell the fiction from the history, and that makes this book truly enjoyable . . . . This group of novellas truly fits well together and has none of the usual jarring feeling you get when several short stories are put into one book together. All in all, if you are looking for a book that is historical and entertaining, this is a read for you." -- Kathryn B.
