5.0 out of 5 stars A human story, February 15, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Rapture (Kindle Edition)
Sure, this story is set in the aftermath of the Rapture. But despite some pointed social satire and dark humor, it's really about relationships--as is the case with all of Ms. Jones' writing. The mystery of who was "taken" and why is a foil that reveals the protagonist's anger, desires, vanities, misunderstandings, and intentions. All those things that just might add up to her soul.

The ending, when she confronts her husband's teenaged junkie "lover" is pitch perfect.

Jones is the author of two excellent novels that spurred controversy over their subject -- Mohammed's youngest wife, A'isha. Jewel of Medina and Sword of Medina. They're also available on Amazon, I believe. Check them out. If you like historical fiction, you won't be sorry.
