Why read it?
2 authors picked A Voice in the Wind as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is the gold standard of Ancient World Christian Fiction for a reason. The author is an RWA Hall of Fame recipient and ACFW Lifetime Achievement Award winner. This first book in the Mark of the Lion series is so much more than a book about early Christianity and why Rome hated it. Words to describe Hadassah and Marcus’s story are… epic, profound, life-changing, powerful, captivating, and I could go on and on.

From Nancy's list on that put the Roman in romance.
This is just one of those books that you never forget. I rarely keep books on my shelf these days due to space, but this series is one that I will never give away. All I can say is it is a very powerful read, based on the history of the Jews after Rome captured them in the 1st century. The story follows a young Jewish girl sold into slavery. There’s romance, adventure, great characters, history, and a story that will touch your heart in multiple ways.
From MaryLu's list on on the edge of your seat Christian romance.
