very good listening and informative

Exceptional and informative reading of the Bibical History as well as the history of Greece, Rome, Egypt and the struggles of those sold into slavery in other countries during this time period.

detailed

What i love most about Angela Hunt's books is how she brings her characters alive and how intricately they are woven into a well known story but providing little know or thought of details.

The way the story was put together while God was working out His plan

I liked the entire story. It was put together well and easy to follow. It was a beautiful lesson in forgiveness

great book

started out a little slow but once I got into it I couldn't stop listening

Story full of intrigue

Wow. What a gripping tale. Who knew ancient history would gripping. Although this is a novel, the amount of history is amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
