The new historical blockbuster from the author of "The Autobiography of Henry VIII", "Mary Queen of Scotland and The Isles" and "Memoirs of Cleopatra". Hallmarked by bestselling author Margaret George's dazzling mix of history and creativity, "Mary, Called Magdalene" is George's most ambitious work yet. Brilliantly grounded in both biblical and secular historical research, it depicts Mary of Magdala in the first hundred years of the first millennium - even as it peels away layers of legend. Testaments, letters, and narrative convincingly capture Mary's immediate and moving voice as she becomes part of the circle of disciples and comes to grips with the divine. "Mary, Called Magdalene" transcends both history and fiction to become a "diary of a soul."
