Voice of the Ancient (The King's Men, #1) in Clearly Christian Readathon

Apr 30, 2023 Heather Wood rated it it was amazing

I'm so glad to see Connilyn Cossette continuing to write stories about the Israelites in the Old Testament, and highly anticipated this book. Time marches on, and now Israel is crowning their first king as the children from her last series grow into adults. I really enjoyed seeing the effects of some of the country's historical choices on the culture, such as the way the tribes on the east side of the Jordan intermingled more of the surrounding nations' beliefs into their own religion. It was al ...more

Voice of the Ancient exceeds a 5-star rating! If possible, I would rate it 10+ stars! It is perfectly written with well-developed characters (some loved, some despised), brilliant story, descriptive settings, and exquisitely incorporated Biblical truths.

Readers who enjoy the writings of Tamera Alexander, Mesu Andrews, Julie Klassen, Jill Eileen Smith, Kim Vogel Sawyer, and Elizabeth Camden will fall in love with the pace and writing style of this incredible novel.

Connilyn Cossette, you are amazing! I'm so glad you have many stories you are eager to write because I am just as eager to read them! Friends, I have read all her Biblical based fiction novels and they never fail to transport me to a world filled with dusty roads, tunics and voices from the past. She quickly became one of my favorite voices in Biblical fiction and she never fails to touch my heart. She wrote Voice of the Ancient while battling illness and I was prepared to offer grace, thinking ...more

Voice of the Ancients is full of family, friendship, suspense and action. I loved Avidan and Keziah's story and how Avi accepted responsibility. Men who aren't honorable aren't seen as heroes. Can be read as a stand-alone, but I am off to read the next novel in The King's Men series! ...more
