Customer Reviews

Wish the Bible was this interesting!

While not particularly religious, I have always had a curiosity of the Bible but have found it incredibly boring and hard to read. I've been told the stories Traylor writes closely match the Bible and after reading this book I can't wait to read more! Better than a Harlequin Romance - and more engaging and intellectual at the same time. I wish more history was taught this way. :)

Wonderful Story

This book is one of the best Biblical novels I've ever read. I've read it over and over and over, and never tire of it. I cannot recommend this book enough.

gripping

This book takes you into God's history and tries to fill in on Abraham's life. It gives you possible reasons for why he acted like he did and glimpses into what his life might have been like. I found this book very hard to put down and extremely easy to pick back up. Each time I have read it, I find new details in it that I passed over before. I would recommend this book to anyone.

My very favorite in the series. I want to be like him.

This book in wonderful. I couldn't put it down, I feel like I walked with Abraham on his journey of faith. Her ability to bring a character to life and fill in the blank spaces is truly a gift . I would love to read it again.....but I can't wait to get to the other books by Ellen.

She breathes life into God's history

When you need a lift in faith, read this book. Even if you like historical literature or just want a satisfying read, you will enjoy Song of Abraham. Ellen G. Traylor puts into perspective the incredible belief Abraham must have had to follow God - at all costs. (A good idea is to find the bible account and read it before you read Song of Abraham. I did that, and found that it followed pretty closely.)
