"It may not be too much to say that Mariamne herself is one
of the most
perfectly crafted figures in modern fiction...
She
will no doubt
eclipse all other representations of Mary Magdalene for some
time." "I
take
The Secret Magdalene as symbolism, and as such
it enriches
and exhilarates me, it nourishes my optimism and further
washes away any
fear of the unknown."—Earl Doherty, author of "The Jesus
Puzzle"
