Redemption by William E Jefferson Review


Redemption is a companion novel to The Point: The Redemption of Oban Ironbout. The story is set on the metaphorical Isle of Estillyen, where creative monks stage dramatic readings of biblical stories.
In the novel, the readings were presented in synopsis form. Now readers can delve into the twelve Scripture narratives as they were originally given by the monks of Estillyen.
Richly inspiring, this unique volume promises to draw readers closer to the theme of redemption–and to the Redeemer himself. The story beckons. Life it gives. Redemption it offers.
My Review:
This is a companion novel, and after reading both books I know why. This book gave great insight to The Point. The 12 readings are in the original intended length in this book. You get the whole story and get to decide the meaning for yourself. There is no 3rd party deciding what facts you do or do not read.  I read them a few weeks apart and in doing so got to read each for what they were, without them depending on each other. I am definitely giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review from Handlebar, however all opinions are my own!
