Gods and Kings: A Novel Audiobook

" This book really brings the stories in the Bible to life. "

" I love this series of 5 historical fiction reads dealing with King Hezekiah and his son Manassah. Lynn Austin weaves a great epic story from the Biblical scriptures making it personal. The first book was a little bit slow to get into, but oh my, once you grasp on to the story, you will not want to quit till you finish the whole set from one thru five books. "

" brings the story to life by giving the people substance and personality,beautifully written. I do not know if it is correctly told since i do not have enough knowledge about the story... "

" This book gives so much life to the Bible story. "

" Enjoying very much! At the end I could not put the book down. "

" Free Kindle historical fiction... this is how I get my knowledge of Biblical history these days. Or any history, for that matter. "

" absolutely fantastic! can't wait to read the entire series. "

" Brings the "boring" Chronicles and prophets passages from the Bible to life. "

" I'm not religious, but I enjoyed the story. "

" well written. Highly recommend! "

" Excellent story based on the Old Testament. "

" I quite enjoyed this book. A clearly loosely fictionalized story of Hezikiah's life before becoming King of Isreal. "

" A most introspective journey through yourself and your relationship with God. Though very emotionally difficult to read sometimes, it really made me re-evaluate my faith and my realtionship with Him. "

" Great book on the life of King Hezekiah! "

" This was a fantastic book!!! It was the story of Hezekiah and his discovery of God. Will defiantly read again!!! "

" Just bought this book last night on my ipad and can hardly put it down. About the young life of future king Hezekiah. Wow. If you love historical biblical fiction... this is book one in a series of 5. Book 1 is unavailable with amazon/Kindle but is available with barnes and noble (nook or ipad) "

" Just finished Gods and Kings, Christian fiction based on the book of Chronicles about King Hezekiah. I liked her message, but it was written more "modern" than I liked. Her characters were missing too much of the ancient philosophies and customary attitudes of the time. "

" Wonderful book! Written so the reader can understand what is going on. Very good description of rituals of that era, great book, and have just now bought the 2nd in the series! "

" This is an incredible series based on King Hezekiah's reign during Old Testament times. Really gives you a good picture of what life was like at that time. "

" For a king who isn't really talked about, Lynn Austin did a fantastic job of bringing Hezekiah's story to life. "

" Couldn't put it down. Well written, and anyone with a biblical background can relate to the story. "

" This book is absolutely worth the read. Though it is a fiction book yet it does stick with the history of things that went on during King Hezekiah's life time! "

" Very interesting and enjoyable. This is the first of 5 in a series and I will definitely be reading the others. "

" I loved this book! She brought to life one of the stories I have Read out of the Old Testament in such a way that I got a true feeling for what was happening! "

" Great series! Loved how she brings that era to life... "

" I liked it but I need to reread it. It has been a while. "

" I liked this, but I didn't really like the writing. I like the history and had to go and read exactly what the Bible had to say about it to feel more comfortable about what were the fiction parts of the books. I am interested in what happens in the next book. "

" I love this story. Historical fiction is my favorite things to read. I felt like having just been to jerusalem made this story come alive in my mind. Well done. Off to read the second book. "

" This is a great book. If you are confused about the Kings of Judah and Israel in the Old Testament, this is the book for you. I'm going to order the rest of the series. "

" I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the rest of the books in Austin's Chronicles of the Kings Trilogy. They are very informative as well as entertaining. "
