Nice introduction to biblical narrative

Revisado: 12-07-21

The author has written many books and has vast knowledge and understanding of biblical passage and their possible meanings.
i think i was slightly dissapointed with the way she tried to link the characters to every possible encounters, didn't seem realistic even for that time (although nothing is impossible to God).
Nonetheless, I was expecting another layer of depths to the understanding of the scriptures and no simplistic explanation, anyways i was jist slightly dissapointed, but that's on me having a certain degree of expectations. i alos felt the author perhaps added too many layers of westernized ways that might not have been true for that time frame.
That said the book overall was a good read/listen and the narrators vouces where pleasant and made the story believable by switchibg from female yo male.
It was a good biblical story.

Will wait to get book 3

Revisado: 04-27-19

The author emphasizes true biblical perspective in his books, I read/listen with that in mind. and I am still uneasy of the theology, especially after listening to book 2. I am not certain His interpretation of Revelation/Apocalypse is accurate even from a symbolic perspective.
Requires doing some personal research to see where the author may be taking extreme liberties.

If you are simply looking to be entertained and are not a believer, this is a great fictional book. Granted, some parts could have been left out (repeating/re-explaining characters circumstances), but it was understandable why the author chose to do that. It provided a bit of background for those that did not read the first book in the series, or did not fully remember.
However, it was a bit disgruntling for me. Mostly because, I just finished the first book and had no desire to re-listen to it.

Good enough for a first book.

I do not completely agree with the theology. However, story line is pretty good. Enjoy

Ok Read

Revisado: 02-23-19

it was an ok read. A bit much on the build up, but somewhat suspenseful. For a biblical history perspective, it didn't line up with quite a few things. but good fictional book that should not be correlated with the bible, though some biblical events are mentioned.

So, so...

Not sure what i was expecting but it was certainly a bit more than this. the story. Not sure if this is just the first of many books, and hope the others (if any) are a bit more engaging.

It was ok

Revisado: 09-27-18

the beginning was a bit confusing. had to push myself. story built nicely, but I wondered at the veracity of the set up/ relationships in those times. overall nice read/listening.
