It was ok. As I mentioned in my review of The Expected One, I am most interested in the alternative version of historical events that it presents. The story itself doesn't contain much in the way of suspense. I would have preferred if the author wrote a non-fiction book instead. I am interested in r...
Interesting book. Just wish the author would have disclosed at the beginning of the book what she disclosed at the end. Felt a bit secretive putting it at the end like that (I along with many others that I know, do not go straight back to the end of the book). I'll probably read the others in the tr...
This second book in the 'Magdalene Line' trilogy is as gripping as the one before it, 'The Expected One'. In this, the central protagonist, Maureen Paschal (herself, an expected one) searches through history to understand and uncover the mystery and the location of the Book of Love, a testament writ...
This is the story of a woman who finds that she has links to the holy grail. She also finds that she's dragged into controversy and that there are a number of different people who want her to join them because she has a lot of potential power. I found it readable but only just, there are huge leap...

I found this book at the library the other day and something made me pick it up and add it to my list. I'm sure that it's a book my mom would tell me I'm going to hell for reading (we are both devout Catholics), but I just can't help myself. I am always curious about other people's beliefs and about...
While I thoroughly enjoy McGowan's writing style, I didn't like this book as much. The first 1/3 of the book seemed to be a rehashing of the first two which, if you're reading this one you didn't need. I also felt like McGowan was rushing this one a bit. While the other two I listened to as audioboo...
The continuation of the first book, Maureen's journey continues as the Arc Gospel is in the hands of Rome. Her encounters with Matilda of Canossa and their shared history and journey create a great story and it was nice to learn about a women who has been mostly forgotten about in history and the de...
Oh.. having grown up with the Lutheran Church, the ideas presented in this book have completely changed my ideas of Mary. I knew she wasn't a prostitute but the idea that she had children was the greatest turning point. I had heard the ideas that she was married to Jesus before but children? wow. W...
Maureen is again on a mission to uncover the true story of a woman who was also of the bloodline of Mary Magdalene and Jezus Christ. Wikipedia can't tell me why Matilda of Tuscany's body was moved to the rest in the Vatican, but in this story she is not only the lover of Pope Gregory VII, but also h...
