This book was disappointing. I actually had to stop reading halfway through the book, skip to the last chapter, and then be done. The author is very obvious is her disdain of prophets, frequently having characters scorn and ridicule Lehi and Nephi. Yes, I know that prophets are real men who have flaws, make mistakes, and are trying their best. My biggest issue with this book can be found on page 105, where Nephi "sounded as if he was repeating someone else's words without thinking about them." I think Nephi really did have faith, and would not parrot the Lord's words without really praying and thinking about them, and then coming to a belief in them before speaking them to others.
