Byron's Narrative of the Loss of the Wager By John Byron
John Byron blends the ordinary with the unusual to give you four intriguing tales that promise to take you to realms you only thought you knew. A man, dying of incurable cancer finds himself on an unexpected adventure that proves that things as he knew them are never what they seem. We revisit that fateful night when Frankenstein was born in the mind of Mary Shelley. Or... Did she leave a little something out? A man travels back in time and enlists the aid of a younger self and his now dead wife to stop the one event that begins the horror of World War III. What could possibly go wrong? Is your soul for sale? If so, this man just may have exactly what you are looking for. With his gift for the barstool narrative, John Byron weaves the inexplicable into something a little more believable. Besides, it's only fiction... Right?

Paul's epistle to Philemon is one of the shortest books in the entire Bible, and it certainly leaves plenty to the imagination. From the pen of an accomplished New Testament scholar, this vivid historical fiction account follows the slave Onesimus, fleshing out the lived context of first-century Ephesus and providing a social and theological critique of slavery in the Roman Empire.
