Survey of fictional works on Mary Magdalene.

Overview

Mary Magdalene has a long history in Christian fiction as a saint and penitent. Lately, Mary Magdalene has experienced new life as a patron of women's preaching and ministry, amidst of pure speculations that she could have been the wife/lover of Jesus (see Married Jesus) and the mother of his children (see Jesus Bloodline).
