"I very much enjoyed this historical fiction. Spanning several generations and several continents, this is a big story - and very well told. There was one bobble where Edmond was referred to as Edward, but I think I can forgive that."

" Loved the writing; loved the story. Well written. "

" Very interesting story. A lot of loops, turns and twists. Can get a little lost towards the end, at which point I was beginning to loose my interest. Well written. "

" Honestly, I never finished it. It was fairly interesting, but I "listened" to it instead of "read" it and when my ipod kept messing up the audio, I never bothered getting it from the library. "
— Dianne, 11/24/2012 -
" This was a good book in some ways. I loved the premise and the history in it was very interesting. I love history. I could still pick it apart, though. Except... I just realized I'm not in the mood to pick things apart, so I won't. "

" This book started out well, couldn't wait to see who would end up with the bible next. The ending was a little weak. "

" Loved it! It reminded me of the Red Violin and People of the Book. Where an object's life is traced through the history of its owners. "

" We listened to this book and it was long (almost like two stories in one book) but we both enjoyed it and I especially liked the ending. "
— Helen, 10/18/2011 -
