Summary: "Awesome"

This is one in a series of 5 books. I have always found reading the bible to be difficult and hard to comprehend. This series of books has changed that completely. While these books are historical fiction they are based on much research from the bible and historical documents. I absolutely could not put these books down. They are as good if not better than any best seller book I have ever read. If you know anyone who thinks the old testament is boring and out of date, have them read these books. The characters bring these stories to life in a way I never would have dreamed possible. Outstanding !!!

Summary: "Book strengthens your faith"

This is a powerful book in the middle of a GREAT series! I have loved this series by Lynn Austin. It is easy to see in the Bible where she bases her storyline. It really brings the Old Testament to life, unlike anything I've read before.

Summary: "Spiritually Inspiring"

The third volume of five in the Chronicles of the Kings series by Lynn Austin is spiritually inspiring fiction. She writes so as to be accurate both to history and to the Biblical accounts, but develops the characters and dialogue in a way to bring everyone to life in interesting ways.

Summary: "Like the first two, I could not put it down"

What an awesome storyteller. If you have ever had the pleasure of reading a Francine Rivers novel, you will enjoy Lynn Austin as well. While I meditated on Rivers novels for days and even weeks, I found Austin's stories a bit faster paced and entertaining yet at the same time thought provoking and nourishment to the soul. I greatly enjoyed the first three books and highly recommend them. I am waiting for the fourth and fifth!
