Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Quick and entertaining
Review: This book is unusual. It combines many diferent themes. It uses lyrics like Lord of the Rings. The women are resourceful and smart. I wish it was longer. There are beautiful scenes in this book. Romance. Betrayal. The author's foreward almost predicted the ugly priest-sex scanal we've experienced. Thank you, Ken Agori

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: action and mystery
Review: This book kept my attention from the very beginning. It moves back and forth from the present day to the times of the knights. I enjoyed it more than the DaVinci Code.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fast moving, action, knights, and love
Review: This book took me from the present day into the world of knights and the middle ages. I liked this book because the characters were strong women who broke with tradtion. The love story also pulls you in. This book had more mystery to me than the Davici Code because in went back in time.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Good mystery & romance
Review: This book would make a great movie with the exciting adventure, and interwoven plots that span several time periods. If you like love stories and adventure, you will like this book. It also has knights & mystery.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: History, adventure, romance &mystery
Review: This is a fast moving novel captures you attention with
intrique and adventure. It reminds me of an adventure movie.
The discovery of ancient documents with supernatural links carries the modern day protangonist back and weaves in a story about knights and adventure. Who is trying to destroy these documents and why? It really kept my attention.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: An interesting premise, but...
Review: This is a poorly written book. The language is juvenile, the thoughts incomplete. I did not get a feel for the characters. I certainly didn't get any sense of "love and light". After reading some of the other reviews I thought it might be worth a try, however I found it disappointing to say the least. I'm glad Amazon has a return policy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Interesting action and adventure
Review: This novel kept my interest. In fact I stayed up all night reading it! It weaves history, ancient & modern day together in a series of adventures ranging from medieval Europe to modern day Nantuckett. I enjoyed it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: George Lucas, Make this a movie!!
Review: We have needed a saga that is based on truths, not pure sci-fi. This book tells of a wonderful heroine, Elise, who overcomes a bad mariage to become whole...by the way she also uncovers the real truths about Jesus. There is another heroine, Lady Katherine, who lives during the Crusades. She's both a healer AND a warrior!! Elise connects with Katherine, I won't tell you how, but there is magic here. This will make a glorious movie...from Jerusalem to Cape Cod, Maine to Nantucket, this will be marvelous..also there are lyrics in this, like Lord of the Rings. Very unique...all in a quick read.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: A nice mystery book
Review: When I read this book, I must say that I enjoyed it but it was not what I expected! I was looking for a book about the Crusaders and was recommended this book, but this is more of a modern mystery, even if the Crusaders are a part of the mystery! As I said, the book is ok and readers that like mystery-books will probably enjoy this more than me!

Regards,

Summary: One Crazy book
Review: While I understand the author's inspiration for this story, it's a wild mish-mash of too perfect coincidences, frequent POV changes and thinly drawn characters who don't bat an eye when a close friend or relative dies. Its also full of anachronisms and historical mistakes. French knights named Eric and Storm? A lot of the writing just bridges scenes so that the reader is left wondering what the heck happened to a character or what is going on. Who edited this manuscript?
