Francine Rivers

So I finished my second book in the Mark of the Lion trilogy by Francine Rivers last night. The first is called Voice in the Wind, then Echo in the Darkness, and finally As Sure as the Dawn. The trilogy is the last of all her novels that I have to read. Her books are awesome. I encourage everyone to check them out. She writes so well. She develops the characters well, details things very well, but to the point, so that you are not lingering on and on on one subject for too long. And she tells it like it is, meaning she's not afraid to bring up a subject or detail something that may be offensive to someone even though its a Christian fiction book, but she does it in a way in my opinion that is . . . hmmm . . . I don't know. The books are just soooooo very well written. The messages in all of them are very very good. This last book I just read, Echo in the Darkness, the 2nd book of the Mark of the Lion trilogy, is the first book where I have to admit I cried while reading it. I mean I've been moved while reading books before, but this one actually brought me to tears, and not just tears . . . at times even goose bumps. So check out her books. I also found out she has a website, so I put a link for that up on the left. I think you will find her to be a very neat lady. :o) I can't wait to go pick up the 3rd and final book at Barnes & Noble on Thursday.
