The long-awaited new book from multi-award winner Geoff Ryman
An extraordinary science-fiction novel about identity, divinity and
alternate reality - the story of the son of God.
"Women, of course, can not be sons of God,"
In the village of Nazareth, virgin Maryam and the wife of Yosef barLevi
gives birth to a miracle: a little girl. She is named Avigayil, after
her grandmother.
But as Avigayil grows, it's clear she believes that she is destined to
be someone greater than just the daughter of Maryam. From leading a gang
of village boys to challenging the priests in the temple, Avigayil is
determined to find her way as Yeshu, a man.
Yeshu can work miracles. He can see futures. He can speak for God.
A gripping, thoughtful sci-fi novel, tackling family, the multiverse and
the survival of love through immense change and crisis.
