I wanted to pop my head out from my latest book long enough to share some insights before delving head first back into my next book.
Lynn Austin’s series, “Chronicles of the Kings”, is so immensely gripping! I love God’s Word and it’s even sweeter when an author creates a fictional story based on biblical history that makes you want to grab your Bible.

With each book in this series I have found myself crawling up on my bed with my Bible reading the true account of the stories that Lynn Austin has so beautifully authored in this series. She paints beautiful pictures of these biblical characters in each story and intertwines the truth of God’s Word in with fictional characters and amazing plots that paints a movie in your mind of how their lives may have been lived out.
Direct quotes from scripture are weaved into the story to provide the skeleton from which Lynn could use her imagination to develop a gripping story.
Each book so far has been a page turner.
As I've read Books 1-3 so far, chronicling through Kings in the Old Testament, I’ve been reminded in these stories about God’s expectation of His children to remain faithful to Him, regardless of the difficult circumstances that we may find ourselves in. God’s grace is sufficient, come what may.
I look forward to the continuing story of Kings as I peek into the life of King Manasseh, a man who did evil in the sight of the Lord and the life lessons that I can gain from his mistakes and God's ultimate victory in the life of His people.
