Story
When the daughter of a prominent Roman general meets a disinherited Jewish immigrant, neither one can dream of God's plan to transform them into the most influential couple of the early church. Nor can they anticipate the mountains that will threaten to bury them. Their courtship unwittingly shadowed by murder and betrayal, Priscilla and Aquila slowly work to build a community of believers, while their lives grow increasingly complicated thanks to a shaggy dog, a mysterious runaway, and a ruthless foe desperate for love.

Story
Eight years ago, when the Philistines stole and then surrendered the ark of the covenant back to the Israelites, Eliora left her Philistine homeland to follow the ark to the community of Kiryat Yearim. There, the family she was adopted into has guarded the ark at the top of a mountain in seclusion. Ronen is a Levite musician determined to return the ark to Shiloh, where his tribe believes it belongs. He never expected that the Philistine girl he rescued years ago would now be part of the very family he's tasked to deceive.

A man wakes up in the Valley of Death and realizes he's given up everything to attempt to kill Death so that he can bring his love back to life - but when he fails, who will be there to rescue him? The Hunter and the Valley of Death is a profound meditation on life, death, loss, and love. Formatted as a fantasy parable based on Psalm 23, this story shows that there is only one who could kill Death - and because of him, and him alone, we say, "Oh, Death, where is your sting?"

King Solomon was wealthy and wise beyond measure. He could - and did - have anything he wanted, including many women from many lands. But for all his wisdom, did he or the women in his life ever find what they searched for all of their lives? In this engrossing novel, you'll find yourself whisked away to ancient Israel, where you'll meet Solomon and four of the women he loved: Naamah the desert princess, Abishag the shepherdess, Siti, the daughter of a pharaoh, and Nicaula, the queen of Sheba. Did Solomon's wisdom ultimately benefit him and those he loved...or did it betray them?

What are we supposed to think about the coronavirus crisis? Some people think they know: ‘This is a sign of the End,’ they say. ‘It’s all predicted in the book of Revelation.’ Others disagree but are equally clear: ‘This is a call to repent. God is judging the world and through this disease he’s telling us to change.’ Some join in the chorus of blame and condemnation: ‘It’s the fault of the Chinese, the government, the World Health Organisation...’ Tom Wright examines these reactions to the virus and finds them wanting.

Publisher's Summary
The drama of the Old Testament comes to life as Judah's most notorious king ascends to the throne in this gripping novel from the award-winning author of Isaiah's Daughter.
At eight years old, Shulle has known only life in a small village with her loving but peculiar father. When Uncle Shebna offers shelter in Jerusalem in exchange for Shulle's help tutoring King Manasseh, Judah's five-year-old co-regent who displays the same peculiarities as her father, she's eager to experience the royal court. But Shulle soon realizes the limits of her father's strict adherence to Yahweh's Law when Uncle Shebna teaches her of the starry hosts and their power.
Convinced Judah must be freed from Yahweh's chains, she begins the subtle swaying of young Manasseh, using her charm and skills on the boy no one else understands. When King Hezekiah dies, 12-year-old Manasseh is thrust onto Judah's throne, bitter at Yahweh and eager to marry the girl he adores. Assyria's crown prince favors Manasseh and twists his brilliant mind toward cruelty, beginning Shulle's long and harrowing journey to discover the Yahweh she'd never known, guided with loving wisdom by Manasseh's mother: Isaiah's daughter, the heartbroken Hephzibah. Amid Judah's dark days, a desperate remnant emerges, claiming the Lord's promise, "Though we're helpless now, we're never hopeless - because we serve El Shaddai." Shulle is among them, a girl who becomes a queen through Isaiah's legacy.

I was so disappointed due to the child narrator
I bet this would have been so much better of a story if presented appropriately. This book is not for children. Young adults/teens sure but they wouldn’t be able to get past the childlike voice either. At first I thought well it’s the character’s age, but then the voice never matured with the woman! I had to do a lot of jumping forward to get past the long beginning set up that wasn’t necessary to go that detailed or long. I wanted to get into Isaiah-Hello? It’s his story. And Hezikiah part was way to rushed through and not enough depth of the deep abandonment feelings or how Mannassah felt like why am I here? Dad is always busy. God is more important than me. He didn’t even go to my barmizpah (sp) which is a big deal. It’s the first time a boy can actually enter the temple! So all his friends went with their dads and his dad was the King, how cool is that?! Just to be let down and not be taken in by his dad’s side to introduce him? Then boom He dies. Why? Why only 15 years extra? He didn’t understand. Why would God take his dad away when he needs him most to teach him how to be a man, a leader? So all the hurt and bitterness pent up inside, no wonder he destroyed everything. He didn’t know how to be able to keep up with the name his dad had. He could never be able to be equal at least to his dad and fulfill the people’s expectations. No wonder He rebelled! Destroyed did everything opposite! He was mad at God and his dad! So It was easy to accept the other gods. But God knew his heart so much that instead of destroying him like king Ahab he gave him his time to get it out of his system until all he had left was to look to God the father and repent.
The sad thing is he should have taken a year off to be a dad with his son. But he didn’t have a good example so he didn’t think about it. So he became like King Hezikiah and became a work horse to fix everything right. But forgot his sons. And the legacy of neglecting children continued. Finally it ended because God saw man can’t do this king thing and finally sent the king of Kings - Jesus!
Get into Isiah! And explain what the prophecies meant.
And the man read the script as if no acting at all. Just reading!
So bummed
The Hosea story is great that she wrote. And great narrator!

I wanted to like this book but...
There is much about witchcraft in it.
Isaiah isn’t even mentioned much.
This author is no Lynn Austin.
The narrators are terrible.
I’m going to return it now.

Did not like the spiritualism content!
I don't want to know the deceptive ways of sorcery, black magic, I don't want it to enter my mind. We are not to think of these things! I am appalled.

Interesting perspective
Interesting audiobook, I have listened to many Mesu Andrews books, this one a little different. I really believe that the epilogue (authors notes) should have been stated at the beginning of this book. When I finally finished the book and listened to authors notes did I finally understand so much of the heart of the story. One of the men’s voices (king menassahs’)
voice absolutely drove me crazy, however after listening to notes I guess it was done on purpose however some would perceive as disrespectful to a certain group of people, you will understand when you listen. I didn’t like this distinction, it was not necessary to make him any different than the rest of the men( just my opinion).

Incredible story based on the Bible
I found myself running to the scriptures to verify this fantastic book.
I could not stop listening. It was the most incredible fascinating Truth. I’m so glad I chose this title. God is our loving restoring wonderful Heavenly Father. How He loves His creation.
Thank you Mesu Andrews. May God continue to inspire and bless you
This is in my opinion is your finest treasure.

Dark at beginning- stay with it
I love this author -She is inspirational, educational, and entertaining. This book starts out a little dark with the Evils that went on in the pagan cultures of the time. But Stay with it, it gets better and better with the final redemption of king Manasseh.

At First...
It was hard to listen to, not because it was poorly written, the opposite. Because it created so many emotions and anger and sometimes revulsion for the description of acts done by the king and evil tempers and influence around him. But toward the end of the book - I was held captive.

A story about redemption
I struggled finding this story and only to the end, did it become compelling for me. The worship of false gods and murders, was a bit too much for me.
