Doesn't get any better!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I had never read historical fiction until this, and what I read was absolutely unforgettable! Through the eyes of Malchus, a servant of Caiaphas, and a skeptic, he finds out for himself who Jesus truly is. This book will make you think. What are you willing to stand up for? At what cost? Awesome! Beautiful picture of what Christianity is and should be all about!
Incredibly thought-provoking

A friend recommended I read this, and I am SO GLAD he did!!! I found the story of Malchus intriguing and the portrayal of the lives of the early Christians very thought-provoking. It was a book I couldn't wait to get back to each evening, and I found myself wanting to read more after I finished it. I have now purchased Driven, and find it hard to put down, also!
Life changing version of the Greatest Story Ever Told
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
Very rarely will I give 5 stars to 2 books from the same author. I had to read MALCHUS after reading Griffiths' DRIVEN, a 400 page thriller I read practically non-stop until the last word. I figured DRIVEN would be impossible to top but had to give him the chance. I still haven't decided which book I like best. Besides gripping me with suspence, lovable characters and excellent writing, DRIVEN stirred my conscious to wonderment. MALCHUS on the other hand has changed my way of thinking. The same excellent writing style, great characters (mostly non-fiction in this one) and touching moments that literally brought me to tears at times. I am a regular in the historical fiction genre, and this book is reaserched to the max. Where did Griffiths ever find the names of the actual priests that were plotting Jesus' arrest and their job descriptions in the temple? And half way through the book I was in a sweat, thinking if I put the book down the cosequenses of whatever was to happen next would be on my head. Breathtaking, really. After reading MALCHUS, all I wanted to do was read the Bible, which now seems more alive to me than ever. The best Christian writing I've ever read.

The prologue gave me chills of anticipation. From the first chapter on the story snowballed until my fingernails were digging through the cover. Fresh insight into the greatest story ever told. W. G. Griffiths put me in another world. I want more of this.
