Like most good speculative fiction, The Begotten<\/strong><\/em><\/a> <\/strong><\/em>is based on the question, “what if?”. What if there were lost letters of the Apostle Paul that prophesied a group of people with extraordinary spiritual giftings? What if divine appointments brought these people together at the chosen time for a divine purpose?<\/p>\n

Lisa T. Bergren masterfully weaves a story of good and evil, intrigue and conflict, weakness and strength. Set in medieval Italy during the Inquisition, The Begotten<\/strong><\/em><\/a> <\/strong><\/em>explores the challenges and choices ordinary people are called to make when chosen by God and brought together to fulfill His purpose.<\/p>\n

I was totally captivated by The Begotten<\/strong><\/em><\/a> <\/strong><\/em>and definitely plan to read the rest of the series. It is a book that I would recommend and will certainly read again.
