The graphic nature of the subject matter may be too delicate for some book club members, but if most posess an open mind, could make for livey discussion. Good for those who like a little fantasy mixed with reality. A good read nonetheless.

Everyone in our Book Club loved this book! We've read and loved many of Alice Hoffman's books in the past and this was different than her usual books. Most of us knew nothing about Masada and this was a great book of historical fiction. We loved the characters and how they interrelated in the story. Definitely recommend this book!
