This book is so good (as are the other books by Robert Cornuke)!! It is one of my all-time favorites and just about everyone would enjoy it! My twelve-year-old sister and teenage brothers read it and liked it as well!! I love the history, the action, and the suspense...the story is so vivid that I found myself swept away with the characters and couldn't put the book down!! I have recommended this book to all my friends because it is well-written and the way the Bible is intertwined in the plot is truly wonderful!!

This is, by far, the best novel i've read. It makes you realize the power of GOD's Word. I'm buying more copies to give to family and friends. I know this will make a beautiful present. I couldn't put the book down and my 12 year old son kept asking me how long it'll take me to finish reading it so he can get his chance too!

I really couldn't put this book down. The author weaved the storylines in a way that kept you wanting more, and seamlessly weaved the story from the past and the present. Little by little, the pieces are revealed and the story of the characters come to life.Definitely reccommend this book.

This is a wonderful book, I love the premise,how the word of God in any form, never fails to change a life if it is allowed to work as intended. I would be interested to know whichsegments each author is responsible for writing. It was seamlessly organized!

I didn't want to put it down. It is rather graphic in parts. All in all I would read another book by this author.

I loved this book! It has adventure, intrigue, and a riveting plot. The author weaves the story between the past and the present in a captivating manner that keeps you interested and wanting more of each time frame. The book is rich in history as well. Wherever he takes you in the travels of his characters, he reveals things about the location, people, and cultural mores of the times, things that we never saw or learned about in any of our history books at school. The ending was satisfying, but abrupt. I wanted the story to go on. It's that kind of a book.
