Book excerpt: 'The Book of David' trilogy is the bible's missing volume, a story of love and hate, political chicanery and religious rivalry, the beginnings of nationhood and the men and women whose lives were caught up in its strife. History is written by the winners, we are told -- but what if it wasn't? 'The Book of David' tells the story of the beginnings of the nation of Israel through the eyes of three men who were in their different ways the 'losers' of history - Goliath, whom David slew, Saul, his predecessor as king and Joab, his army general. 'Goliath' is the opening volume, telling the story of the Philistine champion's life and loves up to his fateful encounter with David. The Philistine side of the story has never been told before... Terence Morgan (author of 'The Master of Bruges', 'The Shadow Prince' and 'Villon') is renowned for his 'retakes' of history, looking at events from a fresh and different perspective. 'The Book of David' is a worthy addition to the canon.
