Search - An Echo in the Darkness (Mark of the Lion #2)

Hard to believe but his sequel to Voice in the Wind is even more exciting. You are immediately drawn into the Roman and Hebrew cultures and anxiously read every page to know what happens to Hadassah, Marcus, and the others. Wonderfully written. I devoured it! Hadassah is my literary heroine! Rita Award winner.

Francine Rivers is a wonderful storyteller and she draws you into a very realistic, historical view of life in first century Rome. The story of Hadassah's faithfulness to her Lord, in spite of everything that happened to her, and Marcus's search for God will change the hearts of everyone who reads it. I couldn't stop reading it, couldn't wait to get the next one and my friends say the same thing! It touched my soul, and I will never forget this story. I wanted more after reading it!

The Mark of the Lion series was so good I would give it ten stars if there were that many. I am so grateful I discovered this author. All my years in church and I never learned a smidge of what I learned about Jerusalem and the history of that time like I learned from the book. Her research is phenomenal and I also really believe inspired. Many times I cried through it as she made Christ and his teachings come alive for me. She put me right back into that time and it was impossible to stop reading till all 3 books were read and now I have started on everything else Francine Rivers has written.

Loved it as much as the first one. Waiting (not so) patiently for the 3rd to come available. Good series!

Many positive thoughts: rich in authentic history, breaks formulaic"beautifullady meets& marries handsome slightly naughty" man, true christian fiction, and unbelievably suspensful. On waiting list for third in series.

I loved this book and series. What a story of faith and believing in God and trusting in God. Its historial events and how life was in that time helps to understand what christians went through back then. One of my favorite authors.
