Lilah (Abridged) Audiobook

" Lilah is portrayed as Ezra, the Prophet's sister. It was an interesting read to see what the culture was like at that time. The novel takes place over several years before Ezra leaves Susa and makes the journey to Babylon and finally to Jerusalem. "

" I listened to this in the car. I enjoyed it, but not as much as Sarah. "

" Not for those who like to see a happy ending. "

" The last of the Canaan Trilogy. All books were really great reads. "

" This is the 3rd book in the Canaan Trilogy. This whole series is very good if you liked the Red Tent (which is an awesome book). "

" Good love story in ancient Bible times. A bit graphic. "

" Excellent Book. Definately comes a close second to Sarah. "

" This book isn't quite as involved as the first two in the Canaan Trilogies but you still get sucked in. "

" My least favorite in the Canaan trilogy... but had to read all three. Good read... found myself not liking Ezra in this interpretation. "

" 3rd book of the trilogy - enjoyed reading about the setting of Bible times - what they may have eaten or worn. story line ok, the end was disturbing enough for me to go back and read the book of ezra and more. "

" Interesting what I don't know about biblical characters. Well written. "

" Interesting book. this author does a nice job creating historical fiction accounts of strong Jewish woman from the bible. She has several other books as well. "

" Read by Bernadette Dunne. Think it was mostly fiction and slow moving. "

" I was very disappointed in the third book of Marek Halter's trilogy. I was not engaged in the character and her story nor did I feel that it was a complete story; no resolution at the end; blah. I really enjoyed the first two and was so looking forward to this one - what a let down. "

" I liked this book better than Sarah or Mary of Nazareth. "

" Third in the Bible series. Ezra's sister falls in love with a Persian soldier but Ezra forbids marriage between the two. Great historical context and overview of politics and daily life and I loved the references to the rebuilding of the temple in Jerusalem. "

" Listened to on CD. Not terribly interesting. "

" My least favorite of the triology. "

" Overall I enjoy the book. However I was really disappointed on Ezra's harshness toward women and children towards the end. Lilah was a beautiful woman who in my opinion deserved better. "

" This was a very interesting book. I had a hard time getting into it then the first two books, I think this was because I don't remember learing about Lilah and her brother Ezra. "

" Not my favorite book by this author. The ending is just horrible, And what happens to the love of her life/????? Really??? that is it??? I dont buy it. "

" Story of Lilah, sister of Ezra from the Bible. I did not like it nearly as much as "Sarah" or "Zipporah" "

" I think I made a big mistake by reading the third book in the trilogy first. It's not bad, but I think I expected more. I think I wanted more detail of the time period it represented and less romance novel. I thought it moved too slow, or at least slower than I had expected it to. "

" Just ok, I wasn't too impressed. Interesting setting was really the only redeeming feature. "

" Didn't finish the book......not what I thought it was going to be...basically a love story.... "

" Read by Bernadette Dunne. Think it was mostly fiction and slow moving. "

" It's the final book of Canaan trilogy. A woman of faith & courage set in the culture of the Middle East thousands of years ago. "

" I liked it as an effort to make more real one of the bible stories, the story of Ezra and rebuilding the temple. A good effort to try to give a more understandable picture of how this might have been. "

" Interesting book. this author does a nice job creating historical fiction accounts of strong Jewish woman from the bible. She has several other books as well. "

" This was a very interesting book. I had a hard time getting into it then the first two books, I think this was because I don't remember learing about Lilah and her brother Ezra. "

" Not my favorite book by this author. The ending is just horrible, And what happens to the love of her life/????? Really??? that is it??? I dont buy it. "

" Listened to this on a road trip to/from Vegas. The first half was GREAT. The second half was so utterly depressing that it would have been a four star book if not for the sad ending. It really left a damper on my mood! Still an enjoyable read (or listen in this case). "

" This book isn't quite as involved as the first two in the Canaan Trilogies but you still get sucked in. "

" Just ok, I wasn't too impressed. Interesting setting was really the only redeeming feature. "

" The fact that it was an easy read made up for the fact that it really wasn't much of anything. "

" Lilah is portrayed as Ezra, the Prophet's sister. It was an interesting read to see what the culture was like at that time. The novel takes place over several years before Ezra leaves Susa and makes the journey to Babylon and finally to Jerusalem. "
