My Thoughts:
Sadly I'm not a fan of this book and I wish this wasn't my first review for 2019.
I can already hear the gasps from the audience 'What, you didn't like a Jerry B. Jenkins novel?'
I am a huge fan of time-slip novels especially ones that tie history and present day together. However, in Mr. Jenkins newest release I felt as though I was reading two individual stories that were never tied together.
I'd just start to enjoy present day Manhattan and then go back in time to Mesopotamia with no connection to the previous story. And while the stories are wonderful individually I really wanted them to unite in some small fashion.
The biblical research is evident throughout the story set in Mesopotamia. The writing is stellar, descriptive, and real in true Jerry B. Jenkins fashion.
