The Book of Joe: a satire

By Josephus Maximus

Set in the first century CE in the Eastern Mediterranean Roman city of Antioch, this social and religious satire tells the story of a talented writer who gets caught up in the events and occurrences of The Black Day, the most unlucky day on the ancient Roman calendar. Follow Josephus Maximus as he desperately tries to deal with the lot the Fates have cast for him while finding his true talent and place in the world in this lighthearted comedy. It is a tale of random circumstances, mistaken identities, and friendships that explores the draw that spirituality and religion have on man's search for comfort and meaning. Nothing is sacred in this satire as it digs at cults, religions, and man's prejudices.
