The fairy tale-parable "And My Blood Was Given to the Lions..." by Sergey Marnov belongs to the adventure genre. What makes this work special is that the author is a historian and a devout Orthodox Christian. Can a Christian live a long and happy life while possessing material wealth? Will his conscience not fall asleep, will he not forget God? Is suffering necessary to find Salvation in Christ? Are persecutions against the Church inevitable? Can a Christian serve godless authorities? The author attempts to find answers to these and many other agonizing questions. The main character, who lived during the Brezhnev era, went through the Afghan war and the turbulent nineties, by God's will, finds himself in the times of the early Christians. He meets people who saw the Apostles, encounters the holy Apostle and Evangelist John the Theologian. The author handles historical material with care and approaches theological questions with great caution. The book is intended for a wide range of readers.
