Crown And Salvation

This is the story of a young Jewish boy who reached manhood during the tumultuous period of Roman rule in Israel. Young Atara joins the burgeoning Zealot movement because of his hatred and anger towards the Roman occupiers. Through forces beyond his control, he is inadvertently catapulted into the midst of the most significant event in human history: the final Passover week of the Messiah.

The Crown and Salvation was honoured to be shortlisted by Word Alive Press for their annual Braun Award for Fiction. It was also nominated for the Castle Quay Award by The Word Guild of Canada.
