Sweet Story for Girls

What was one of the most memorable moments of An Echo in the Darkness?

The theme of God's forgiveness permeates.

Any additional comments?

My husband could not make it through this series, but for us ladies ... Well, the characters are not realistic, but they are lovely. The author serves us well, because she creates characters that inspire.

An Echo In the Darkness

There are no words to describe my joy and love for this book. The novel brings these characters to life. The historical and detailed facts of the tools and places mentioned paint a clear picture of the surroundings in that time.
The narrator of this story, Richard Ferrone, does an excellent job in his readings. Each character has their personality portrayed through his voice.
