The Thorn of Arimathea

Summary: This is a story of love in the balance of life.
Review: F. Slaughter is a genius as he weaves a consuming tale of love a Roman soldier feels for a common woman from a far away place. As the story unfolds, so does a soldier's misfortune. Yet, he finds a love unbounded, wild, and free, in our cosmic tradition of love. His choices become love, or the betrayel of empire, and in his battles he finds himself, and his love of life. In the final chapters, Slaughter reveals the world he lives in, a world born of desire, a few whims, a bit of sacrifice, and the glory of love.
