The Sword: A Novel Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Kindle freebie. This is Christian fiction set in the far future after apocalyptic events regress civilization to medieval living. All knowledge of Christianity is gone, but the main characters begin to discover it but the high priestess of the idol worship practiced is powerful and is bent on crushing any influence of the god of the cross. A little hard to get into at first, conversations have a mix of modern slang that doesn't seem to fit, and the characters didn't always seem consistent. But overall it kept my interest. It is the start of a series so events do not meet a final resolution. "

" Decent read. Nice try. "

" So far, I'm halfway through, and I really like this book. It has taken me a while to get this far in it only because I have no free time to read, but I really do enjoy the plot and the characters. "

" I was excited to read this when I heard the premise of it from a friend but from the beginning I could tell it was going to be a long journey getting through this book. The main issue was that it was poorly written. Everything is explaining in black and white and some pieces are left out. Ultimately, I had to put it down half way through. It just no longer seemed worth reading. In the end, it was a good premise for a novel but a bad execution. "

" I liked the spiritual aspect of the book. God's ways are diffidently not our ways. I also liked how Anastasia was a strong, capable woman but also cried. She doesn't deny or try to hind her feelings. I always appreciate a good Christian book that has new ideas in it. "

" I found this book a little hard to get into but I continued on! And I found it got heaps better. An loved it. Very repetitive but still very good "

" AMAZING! Mind blowing, descriptive, and a very exciting and enjoyable adventure! I will always love this book! "

" A really easy read, great story, history does repeat itself. And just proves that Christianity has never been tolerated by the world, but because God so loved us, He made a way "

" Not my typical read. I found this book on the Kindle free book list and absolutely loved it. Purchased the 2nd book in the trilogy. Waiting impatiently for the last book to be released! "

" Thoroughly enjoyable book in which the significance of the religion of the ancients proclaims relevance in the futuristic lives of the book's central characters. Full of valor and romance! "

" Awesome book! It's a little slow in the beginning while setting the stage then really grabs your attention and holds it until the very end leaving you ready for the next book in the trilogy! "

" I think this was a good read. Interesting story and characters. I really enjoyed it "

" Very interesting, catchy & easy to follow the story, very inspiring! "

" a great trilogy - if you liked Tolkein, Wheeler, Dekker - this one is for you..... "

" A good read. Not the most compelling fantasy novel, but it makes up for it's shaky pacing with an interesting look at Christianity in it's birth. The community that forms in the book practice a pure and culturally unadulterated living out of what the bible says. "

" My wife really enjoyed this book, so I am giving it a try. While a fan of the fantasy genre, I've never been one to read Christian fiction. I'm curious to see if the religious aspect is heavy-handed, or if it flows well within the story. "

" Great idea for a book, poor execution. Writing is dull and plodding. Made it half way through the first book and will not be reading the rest of the trilogy "
