love this book lives of King David

I truly enjoyed this book. it was a good pace and follow the Bible not sure about the characters but it has a lot of Truth as to what happened in the Bible i I enjoy historical books of the times of Jesus.

Great story

I truly enjoyed this book! It was excellently created around the scriptures, with a beautiful fictional story. I appreciate the author's decision to write it.

Wonderful listen

This book makes the Biblical characters come to life. The narrator’s voice is so wonderful to listen to.

Biblical story with a different perspective

This is one of my favorite authors. She has such a beautiful way of bringing people in the Bible to life. She creates stories with just every day events and depicts activities of life that give amazing depth to her characters. She remains true to scriptures and never takes such broad creative license that the characters and story becomes bizarre. There are sprinkles of verses in her novels that you can look up. And believe me these novels will spark an interest in reading the Bible even if just to check something out. I’ve never really thought much about Michal, daughter of King Saul, David’s first wife. This novel puts different intriguing perspectives of looking at her and how she might have been. All in all a very enjoyable book.

Beautifully Written

Eileen Smith has become one of my favorite authors. The way she intertwines the Word and this story is really awesome! I’ve listened to this story several times and it’s new to me each time.
