Editorial Review: Product Description: World renowned forensic Archeologist, Dr. Terry Harper, has miraculously survived two assassination attempts within the span of 10 days. As Israeli police try to uncover exactly who is behind these inexplicable attacks, Harper, aided by a mysterious exCIA operative, try to escape the Middle East.

Throughout the journey, Harper experiences blackout induced visions, that case him to become an unwitting eyewitness to the birth of the Christian faith, and view the amazing transformation of Saul the persecutor, into the SUPER APOSTLE Paul. In this third book of the AWARD-WINNING Eye Witness graphic novel series, the missions of the super-apostle Paul, are examined like never before as the author delves into questions like...What happened to Paul between the time when his sight was taken on the road to Damascus to when he returned to that city, three years later? Rise of the Apostle, takes the reader through a full color, fully illustrated rollercoaster ride which features the intertwining of a modern day action-thriller with an adaptation of the Book of Acts.

The artistic quality is excellent, along with a tight and convincing storyline that bounces from modern times back to the biblical book of Acts.
