Reviews

AudioFile Magazine...
This novelization of the Bible doesn't include every story in the scriptures, and many included are abridged. Some are told from the viewpoint of one of the characters involved. In reading his own work, Wangerin displays energy, enthusiasm and passion. At times, his enthusiasm spills into over-acting, and some of the vocal characterizations are a bit stereotyped. However, these lapses don't detract from a performance that quickly captures one's attention and keeps it. M.T.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
