The Passion of Mary Magdalene: The Maeve Chronicles
Elizabeth Cunningham
Monkfish
ISBN: 0-9766843-6
Fiction, Religion
Reviewed by Qetesh

This is one of the most powerful and sensual depictions of  Mary Magdalene that I have ever read. This book is a fantasy but it blurs the lines between Christianity and Neo Paganism. It explores each religion with reverence and beauty of the sacred.You will be empowered by the divine feminine as you read this powerhouse of a story about a fiesty Celtic red head named Maeve.

 This story is a recollection of her life, loves, and personal journey to find her lost love Esus, who she once tenderly tended and saved from a Druid sacrifice. She is sold to a Madame, then later becomes a temple whore at the temple of Isis Magdala.

I have never been touched more powerfully or transformed more fully than by reading this book.  No matter what your beliefs, the rich historical detail combined with the deep philosophical insights will challenge you and shake you to the core.  This fantasy fills in the blanks of Jesus's early life and you become deeply acquainted with Maeve and the passionate depths of her soul.  This book is enriching, empowering, entertaining and deeply spiritual.  It celebrates  passion,  equality, strength, feminity, ferocity, and the beauty of woman.
