Good ideas, but hard to stay engaged

Review by LTinuviel

This book has so many good ideas, but it's like the ideas come first and the story and characters come second. I also wanted to know more details about living 3,000 years ago. One very good idea was that thinking positive doesn't mean you always get what you want. As Uriel said, if you don't get what you want, then you need to change your attitude and expectations.

Parent Guide

King Ahab, Queen Izevel and the Prophet Elijah come to life in this fast-paced fantasy reinterpretation of the biblical era of the early Prophets. In this well-researched coming-of-age story, twelve-year-old Lev shepherds his uncle’s flock until the Prophet Uriel hears him play his kinnor (harp) and invites him to join a group of prophets as a musician. Lev quickly discovers that his past is far more complicated and mysterious than he could ever have imagined and that his own fate is linked integrally to the history of the Kingdom of Judah and Israel. Readers get a view of the political currents that steer the course of the Kingdom of Judah and Israel during this turbulent historical era.
