A sweeping Christian fiction epic, Maximus is component mystery, component detective tale, and filled up with intrigue.

General Maximus is usually a battle-weary commander of 1 of Rome’s finest legions. When he profits from an extended, bloody campaign, he discovers himself questioning his lifestyle. Word has already reached Rome of a man named Jesus, who’s causing a stir in faraway Judea. Maximus, disguised as a Jew, is normally sent to investigate the situation and assess his potential risk to Rome.

With this innovative making of the tale of Christ, we see Jesus in the perspective of the outsider. Stripped of his ethnic identity, Maximus is definitely therefore free to ponder whether he can believe Jesus and discover a fresh purpose in his very own life.
