Atheists and agnostics should find the Idolatry novel series of interest as it's written from the perspective of an author who was raised fundamentalist Christian. "Perhaps one of the most striking, heart-wrenching stories of the decade, Genesis (Idolatry Book 1) illustrates talented, free-thinking individuals who, like flowers in the Eastern desert, struggle to survive the relentless sandstorms of irrational, violent ideology. From brilliant philosophers to gifted sculptors, those who hold love, liberty, and the intellectual and artistic expressions thereof as sacred as life itself, will find themselves mired in a society of hostile religious zealots— from which they must either rise, as a soaring phoenix from the ashes of virtue, or to which they must fall, as history's most graven yet prevalent tragedy: the destruction of the innocent." - Melissa McWilliams
