Esther never dreamed that one day she would sit beside the monarch of Persia as his queen. But, when the beauty and simple charm of this Hebrew girl sweep her to sudden greatness, she is destined to fill a role far greater than that of empress. God has chosen her to deliver her people, the Jews, from annihilation, and to become one of the bravest heroines of all time. (Book is also titled "Esther - Woman who Captured the Heart of a King")

Esther comes alive.,
By kwills@mindspring.com (Atlanta, GA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Esther (Paperback)
This series of books makes the characters of the bible come alive. They are fun to read, and put more of a compassion in your heart for the great courage of Queen Esther. This book is fiction but is based on the Word of God, which makes it a tremendous story.

Fiction? Maybe - Maybe not,
This review is from: Esther (Paperback)
This is an engaging story. It is faithful to the Word of God, always a good thing. She brings in history from the area and accounts that we have from outside of the Bible and keeps them in accord with the Bible. She is an author that digs into the past of the area and gives you a story that keeps you interested. Reading Mrs. Traylor's books are always enjoyable and this book is no exception to that. I had a very hard time putting the book down. If you want a Christian fiction that is faithful to the Bible and history and keeps your interest up, get this one. A good read.
