Under Schuller's pen, these mighty men of God become human with all their faults and foibles exposed. Schuller uses tears and laughter, sarcasm and sincerity, compassion and anger to create a believable cast of characters. Characters that are not only believable, but who will also instill in you a sense of the eternal truth upon which this novel is based.

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and welcomed the trip Mr. Schuller guided on the possible life and ministry of the Apostle Paul. He makes Paul come alive, with very real human emotions and temptations throughout. Paul experiences the joys of friendship and the pain of separation, both physical and emotional.
I don’t know if Mr. Schuller intends to write such novels on other biblical characters. I would encourage him to do so. If the effort he put into this novel is any indication, future books will help us get to know those familiar people better as fellow humans and fellow redeemed.

Kurt Schuler's Except For These Chains: The Trials & Triumphs Of Paul Of Tarsus is a deftly presented novel of historical fiction based on the life and struggles of the zealous Christian Paul. Thoughtfully written, drawn from accounts in the New Testament Book of Acts, and presented in with vivacious detail and lively characterization, Except For These Chains is an amazing and recommended recreation of when Christianity was a struggling new religion, dependent upon people like Paul to be taught beyond the borders of its city of origin.
