Hadassah: One Night With the King [Audiobook, CD] [Audio CD]

Mark Andrew Olsen (Author), Tommy Tenney (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2005

Bestselling author Tommy Tenney expands the extraordinary story of Esther like no novelist has done before. Both a thriller and a Jewish woman's memoir, Hadassah takes readers to ancient Persia (now known as Iraq), into the inner sanctum of the palace and back out into the war zones of battle and political intrigue. This gripping drama of a simple peasant girl chosen over many more qualified candidates to become Esther, Queen of Persia, captures the imagination and fires the emotions of men and women alike.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Exciting and insightful, Hadassah is more than the retelling of a Bible story. It is a genuine romance novel." -- In the Library Reviews

About the Author

The youngest of three generations of ministry, Tommy Tenney was born in 1956 and began preaching at age 16. He has spent almost 10 years pastoring and more than 17 years in mobile ministry, traveling to more than 30 nations and most states.

Tommy is a well-known revivalist and has been used to both spark and fuel the fires of revival. He has experienced the miraculous, but more importantly, he knows the value of intimacy with and humility before God. Tommy and his wife Jeannie reside in Louisiana with their three daughters, Tiffany, Natasha, and Andrea.

Mark Andrew Olson is a talented writer whose screenplays and other writing have provided a wealth of experience from which to collaborate with Tenney on this novel. He and his family make their home in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent novel for young girls, July 15, 2005

This review is from: Hadassah: The Girl Who Became Queen Esther (Hardcover)

This version of the adult Hadassah by Tommy Tenney is for girls 10-14, and is age appropriate for them, having the more graphic details of the adult version replaced with less unsettling wording. If you are looking for a book about the life of Queen Esther for the young girls in your life, this is one that would be an excellent choice. The pictures throughout the novel are quite nicely done and go along with the story. Well worth the 9.99 asking price.

This review is from: Hadassah: One Night With the King (Audio CD)

I would recommend this audio novel to all who enjoy a love story as well as historical background. Reading the book of Esther first is a plus but anyone can get the point of the story just by listening to it. For Christians this is a must "read." Tommy Tenney did a really good job in portraying the story of God's love for His people and for the world.
