"Fantastic Sequel"
4 stars"

This novel directly follows the first one: A Voice in the Wind.

The reader gets to explore a whole new aspect to the characters they knew from the first novel. Rivers manages to bring about realistic change to the characters and mould them into their own shapes through the circumstances placed upon them.

Not only so, but the author introduces new characters – some which are pleasant and some which are not.

The plot remains as vivid as the first novel, but carries a different meaning as Christianity is inserted quite differently in this novel.

I admired Rivers's execution of Marcus's search for faith. I found it very well written and very truthful.

There is the perfect mix of suspense and motion in this second novel and I commend Rivers for not letting down the expectations of her audience.

"Brilliant portrayal of early Christianity in Rome."
4 stars"

Following the life of a young Jewish Christian from when as a teenager she is made a slave. The lives she touches & the horrific but miraculous life she lives. I love this book. Francine Rivers has the true writers gift of taking you into the story.

Description

Book 2 in the 3-book historical Christian fiction series by the New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love and A Voice in the Wind. From Francine Rivers comes the "compelling" and "emotionally charged" (Booklist, starred review) second installment in of the story of Hadassah, a courageous Christian slave girl with unrelenting faith, and Marcus, the Roman aristocrat who claims her heart. Believed dead, Hadassah finds employment helping a doctor in the poor section of first-century Rome and discovers an ability to heal others through the power of her faith. When Julia falls ill, Hadassah is forced to confront a difficult decision: should she return to the Valerian household, risking exposure and death, to help her former tormentor in the Christian tradition? Continuing to search for meaning and faith, Marcus turns away from the opulence of Rome, led by a whispering voice from the past into a journey that could set him free from the darkness of his soul. Includes discussion questions suitable for individual use or group discussions. "Francine unlocks the longing in each one of us to connect to God in a deeper, life-changing way. No one reading her books will ever be the same again." --Debbie Macomber "As we 'watch' Hadassah and Atretes struggle through first-century trials, we learn how to handle similar situations in the twenty-first century. The 'costumes' may vary, but our Lord does not change." --Angela Hunt "Francine redefined Christian fiction--honest, unflinching, powerful, life-changing--demonstrating why storytelling is the most effective way to communicate God's truth. Every Christian novelist writing today owes a debt of gratitude to Francine Rivers for lighting the way." --Liz Curtis Higgs "Francine Rivers writes from her heart to touch the hearts of her readers. Her books are essential reading for all who love Christian fiction." --Bodie Thoene "Francine Rivers puts readers right into the history of the moment." --Romantic Times
