Conflict, love, loss, and mystery-join in the adventure of Brothers' War. When young Jerusalemite Nathan bar Opal is pressed into war against mighty Rome, his own brother proves as great a foe as the empire. Can Nathan win against either combatant? Will he find the truth he seeks as he traverses the ancient Mediterranean from Jerusalem to Sicily to Rome? Will he ever find peace? Brothers' War dives deep into the human condition: the struggle to survive, the quest to know, and the hope to find freedom, companionship, respite, and faith in a fallen and turbulent world. It also delves into the complexities of the Classical Age: the unbeatable hegemony of Rome, the cultural interplay of Jews, Christians, Greeks, Romans, and Sicels, as well as the tug of war between the spiritual and earthly, the wealthy and enslaved, the traditional and radical, and the daily insecurity of living at the transition of one epoch to another. The writing of Brothers' War spanned 46 years as Nathan and the author, as well as the worlds around them both, grew and morphed toward adulthood. The authenticity of the characters and the dialogues between them reflect the real-time nature of the author's experiences as he matured. They also reflect a lifetime of passion dedicated to the telling of this story and the history behind it, which long waited to be told.
