Summary: One of the best I've ever read
Review: This entire series keeps you spell-bound. This is historical fiction at its best. However, it is also an action packed thriller. I believe those who do not even love historical fiction will enjoy this series.

Summary: Excellent book! Truly engulfing--I couldn't put it down!
Review: This is one of the first Christian fiction books I have read--it was a great first pick. Michael Phillips has a great way of setting the stage in this story--giving just enough details for the reader to get a firm grasp of the setting and characters without being overly burdensom. The historical background was extremely interesting as well. I was actually transported back in time. I was also truly amazed at how Michael Phillips intertwined the gospel of salvation into the story in a realistic and relevant way. After reading this book, I feel compelled to read every other book from Michael Phillips--especially if they are this good! I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
