"I respect Marc Knutsen's braveness in writing Embedded as his first novel. not just is he taking up the main dramatic tale ever instructed, that of Jesus' existence, yet he is also putting it in an anachronistic atmosphere, instructed from the point of view of a latest journalist named Steve. After the reader adjusts to the bizarre juxtaposition of time periods--Steve has a pc and mobile phone--the narrative is riveting. Steve brings a modern interest to the traditional tale. And it really works. Knutsen confronts head-on the present competition to the Christ-story via taking a latest journalist actually again then."
