A great read for anyone, especially in the young adult genre. — David Finnern, award-winning novelist/journalist and author of the Lost Tales and Sunken Mysteries series.
Titus and the Christian Coin, by Dennis Conrad is a wonderful story of faith and God’s sovereignty.

Book Description:

When Titus refuses to deny his Christian faith, Roman persecution destroys his family and condemns him to a brutal life in the copper mines of northern Italy.

Underground, surrounded by despair and danger, he must choose between hatred and hope, revenge and redemption.

From a mine collapse to an emperor’s audience hall, Titus’s journey spans the Roman Empire during Constantine’s transformative reign. Alongside Tribune Felix, he discovers that true freedom comes through forgiveness, not force. Authentic historical details bring ancient Rome to life while timeless themes of faith, friendship, and courage inspire modern readers.

This gripping adventure combines accurate historical research with compelling storytelling. Readers will witness early Christian persecution, experience Roman culture, and walk through Constantine’s palace while following Titus’s transformation from broken slave to Roman citizen.

An unforgettable tale where archaeological accuracy meets heart-pounding adventure, proving that faith can triumph over the darkest circumstances and that God’s love never abandons His people.

My Review: 

I have read and enjoyed previous books from talented author, Dennis Conrad. I was excited to get my hands on his newest release where he teamed up with a new to me author, Derinda Babcock, Titus and the Christian Coin: An Adventure of Faith and Freedom. I was far from being disappointed. I loved going back in time to when the Roman Empire was in power and Christianity was in its infancy. It was quite the journey to take and seeing how it was like living back in those times. I admired Titus and his bravery, courage and determination. I thought his story was beautiful and inspiring to read. He is a great role model to follow. He was realistic and the historical details made me feel as though I was right there along with him. Even though I am not the targeted audience for this book, I thought it was a great read and had no problem reading it full in no time.

I am going to give Titus and the Christian Coin: An Adventure of Faith and Freedom a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for teen readers who are looking for a fabulous and clean historical fiction. I would love to read more books from Dennis Conrad, as well as, Derinda Babcock.

I received a paperback copy of Conrad and Babcock's Titus and the Christian Coin: An Adventure of Faith and Freedom from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
