Publisher Description
"Make me beautiful." That's what Marci wants from the old woman, not "inner beauty", but real, physical attractiveness to save her from being a teenage outcast. The woman offers a gift in the form of a story, a strange tale from 1940s Bosnia about a group of soldiers who terrorize a town of women and children, brutalize their priest, and murder a child. Somehow, in the midst of the horror, a window opens to another reality, a world of impossible beauty, infectious music, irresistible laughter, and a vision that somehow changes everything. By the time the story ends, Marci hears the heavenly music herself. So will you. Once you hear this unforgettable story, you'll never be the same.

" This story is so sad! I cried through practically the whole thing! I loved how though the story was about an event in history the lesson learned from it is relevant even today. This is a very inspirational and emotional read. "

" While this book sets the story for the Martyr's Song trilogy, it was repetitive because the other books also contain the story. "

" I read this in one day! What a great book!! I have never read anything by Ted Dekker and I was quite impressed with his writing style! Now off to get the rest in the series. "

" I am just diving into this series, so I'm not sure what I think. The ending of this book left you in a rather odd place, but that's not a problem considaring there are three more books! <br/>Odd- but as always, challenging. I couldn't put it down : ) "

" Awesome! As my husband said, "It didn't tell me anything I didn't already know but it reminded me of somethings that everyone needs to remember all the time." Unusual for sure, per Ted Dekker's style - but powerful. A quick read, a heart lesson. "
— Donna, 6/20/2010 -
" This is a very well-written and excellent book. It reminds me of the love God has for each one of us, Highly reccommend. "
