The prose was dry and devoid of any insight into the character's emotions other than when they spoke about them out loud. I suspect that was a choice, reflecting the dry writing of the source material. Don't come at me - I'm a bible fan (secular). That said, if I hadn't been listening to it while playing cities skylines, my ADHD ass would have given up on it midway - though that is true of many books. Overall, I am a fan of biblical retellings, and this is pretty good. I've read worse fanfiction.
