“The city was silently bloating in the hot sun, rotting like the thousands of bodies that lay where they had fallen in street battles.” With this opening sentence, A Voice in the Wind transports readers back to Jerusalem during the first Jewish-Roman War, some seventy years after the death of Christ. I’ll give you the synopsis and then my thoughts. This book is Christian historical fiction and honestly one of the best books I’ve read and not just in this genre, but in general. I decided to pick up the first book, A Voice in the Wind, in a three part series, Mark of the Lion. It was just kind of boring and a typical “cheesy” Christian romance BUT I am so glad I didn’t decide to write off all books by this author. Up until recently I had only read one other book by Francine Rivers, Redeeming Love, and I did not care for it.
