Book Reviews of Sarah: A Novel (Book One of the Canaan Trilogy)
Book Review: Great read
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is a great piece of historical fiction. Some reviewers seem concerned about possible historical inaccuracies, but historical fiction is just that - fiction! The author did a great job of telling his interpretation of the story behind the woman in the Bible. I found it entertaining, heart-wrenching, and very real. Side note: as a Christian, I wasn't offended by way the author treated the Biblical story of Sarah. There's a lot we don't know about Sarah from the Bible, so his story is as good as any other as far as I'm concerned. But I would echo some of the reader's concerns about some graphic passages in the book; the sexual nature of some of the chapters makes this book inappropriate for young readers and may offend some Christian readers.
