Summary: I've read this book 13 times! It's GREAT!
Review: I love this book. You feel like you are really living in Egypt and the time of the Pharaohs. Wonderful book!
Rating:
Summary: Great book and great series!
Review: I must say that I absolutely LOVED the first book 'Dreamers' and I didn't think it could get any better...I was wrong! 'Brothers' was even better and the third book 'Journey' I am in the process of finishing. I have enjoyed it as much if not even a little more than the previous two books. I can't believe how much I'm learning about Egypt and the Bible, just by reading your book! I personally don't like historical fiction because I don't like the history part, but with your books I get the history without even knowing it!

Summary: Ancient Egypt comes alive!
Review: I would like to tell you how much I have enjoyed the Books: Dreamers, Brothers and Journey. I could not put them down. I had almost given up my faith in God until my grandma had given me these books to read, which helped restor my faith in God and our relationship.

Summary: I won't repeat earlier criticisms but
Review: I'lll add that there are historical and Biblical problems. However what does not seem to be mentioned in other reviews is the strange brief introduction to Egyptian family "history" before the story begins. Over and over I asked "where did she get ideas like this" and had to conclude since her "facts" are not cited or documented in any way that she must be reading Herodotus or some modern pseudo-historical work based on misconceived ideas about the benefits of finding matriarchical, matrilineal, and matrifocal cultures. Aside from the questionable family "history" there is also the fact that the story itself does not make reference to the introduction in almost any way until we get to the plot to kill Pharaoh in the last third of the book. The idea of creating female character who could have contact with Joseph and playing up the competition of religions is very well played out in the story. The plot and characters were interesting enough to keep me reading. It is less "G-rated" than many stories based on the Joseph tale or almost any modern fictional retelling of a society that readily embraced slavery -- still not as accurate as it could be but is our society truly ready for such accuracy?

Summary: WOW!!
Review: It was hard to put this book down!! I had read the Old Testament account of the life of Joseph before, but this book brought it vividly to life. It's believable as well as fascinating. Hunt's portrayal of ancient Eygpt is stunning. All of Hunt's books have been wonderful, but this is definately one of the best!!

Summary: The story of Joseph like you've never read it before!
Review: Many people write biblical fiction with a seasoning of historical research thrown in, I went about this story in the opposite way. While taking care not to contradict the biblical account of Joseph in Egypt, I told the story as it would have been seen through the eyes of Egyptians in the eighteenth dynasty. This book is the first of a trilogy. The second book, BROTHERS, is to be released in March 1997, and the third, JOURNEY, is due in the Fall of 1997

Summary: This is the BEST book ever!!
Review: This book actually makes you feel like you're in Ancient Egypt. The story itself is just awesome. Hunt did a great job of taking history and making it fiction!
Rating: 
Summary: Thoughtful, tasteful and interesting.
Review: This is a well-written, sensitive novel, based on the biblical tale of Joseph's life in bondage in ancient Egypt. The character of Joseph is somewhat one-dimensional, but this was nevertheless an enjoyable read. I liked the next novel, Brothers, even better.
