In the thought-provoking narrative of Death of the Gods, Dmitri Mérejkowski delves into the enduring theme of Christ versus Antichrist, a concept that has been echoed throughout history, as noted in 1 John 218-19. This gripping exploration focuses on three significant figures the Roman emperor Julian, the visionary Leonardo da Vinci, and Tsar Peter I of Russia. Known as ‘Julian the Apostate’ by Christians, the emperor Julian—nephew of ‘Constantine the Great’—sought to overturn the establishment of Christianity as the Roman Empire’s official religion, a legacy initiated by his uncle. This riveting narrative unfolds in the first book of Mérejkowski’s trilogy, The Death of the Gods. (Summary by Brian Fullen)
