Amazing historical series that helps you understand Biblical times.
Make sure you have the next book or you’ll be really upset when you finish this one!
This series is one of my absolute favorites! I’ve read and re-read these books several times. I own copies of them in Spanish as well (I’m just just about to finish reading the translation). It’s a great book. They accurately depict the time period, and the plot is gripping. It holds your attention.
It makes me to have deeper understanding of the scripture and made me see the word of God as real as it is,through a novel. Francine Rivers is just a heart-striking writer. Thanks a bunch.
Inspirational must read to get the story of Marcus and Hus- and family.
its inspirational
One of my very favorite trilogies!
This writer writes in a way that keeps me reading but dreading the book coming to an end.
Unapologetically Christian and I Love It.
Amazing.
An Echo in the Darkness is a raw, real, emotional, and heart wrenching story that ripped my heart to pieces and then put it back together again.
This book taught me so much of what it is to truly follow Jesus wherever He leads us, it taught me how to love my enemies, and it taught me to realize that everything happens for a reason. I will not soon forget this book and the lessons it taught.
This series is probably my absolute favorite Biblical Historical Fiction ever! I found myself going back to the Bible to figure out what might have been true and what might have been fiction. It honestly made the Bible come alive for me even more because of the characters and background. Extremely entertaining and creative. LOVED this series!
I had to reread this one. It was that good!
One of my favorite books by my most favorite author. Second only to “A Voice in the Wind.”
Very inspirational and speaks to one’s heart.
Francine Rivers writes amazing historical fiction. This book was very entertaining, thought provoking, and has stayed in my mind for weeks. Looking forward to reading many more by this author
Love this series! I’ve read this series 4 or 5 times and it never gets old!
This is the second book in one of my favorite book series, so much so that I have the hard copy books and plan to get the Kindle copies as well.
Hadassah, Marcus, Julia, and other characters you will meet are like so many of us, and their witness, the ways they see Christ and reject or grow in faith are presented realistically, and not with the trite platitudes or easy answers often seen in Christian fiction.
I would go into more detail, but I’m horrible at knowing which details to include/exclude and different things could be seen as spoilers. I’ll just close with this – these books are everything that is best in historical fiction and/or Christian fiction.
Absolutely COULD NOT PUT THIS down.
This is one book of the Mark of the Lion Trilogy, and I absolutely loved each book in the series. Wonderful character development, the story lines draw you in, great spiritual truths and struggles. I bought all 3 books and have read each of them multiple times.
