The Clementines feature the Simon Magus sub story with the exciting miracle contests between Simon and Peter.
These are the product of an Arian writing c.330 CE. The author is some sort of literary genius.
They became very popular stories during the rule of Constantine
It kind of follows that the Clementines were a literary response to the appearance and imperial authority associated with the NT Bible.
Was their genre some kind of literary parody of (parts of) the NT Story?
