"Read this back when I was still in high school. This up until now is one of my favorites. The author delve more into the history and the feel during Rahab's time and gave more back story on how she helped the spies."

" Speculative fiction about a Bible story. "

" I like this series of Women of the Bible books. Great historical fiction. "

" This was actually a very fast read and I found it very engaging, but I don't think it quite deserved more than three stars. I don't think the author's rendition was very plausible as the real story of Rahab, but as its own story it was very good. "

" I read this book so long ago, but it still sticks in my mind. I may have to read it again. I have been searching for this author for years and have finally found her. I hope to read several more by her. "

" This well written fictional version of the story of Rahab is a fascinating read. Burton has once again researched the time period extensively and weaves the history and culture throughout the story line. "

" Very enjoyable Biblical Fiction read. Strong female main character and satisfying plot. There are four unrelated books in this series. All are equally well written. "

" Romantic little story - not in the sense of sexual romance, but in the "things always fall into place" sense of romance. A nice, light read, with the added bonus of being a variation on a Bible story featuring a woman. Yay and stuff. "
