But if you are looking for a more biblical account, this wouldn't be it. It's tricky to write about biblical characters, particularly if information about their lives is scant, so I have to give credit to Francine Rivers for making them come alive. Meet Bathsheba, one of the five women in the. I did find myself wanting to see what happened next, so that is why I would still recommend this book. Bathshebas beauty stirred the passions of a king her pain moved the heart of God. Meet Tamar, one of the five women in the lineage of Christ. Betrayed by the men who controlled her future, she fought for her right to believe in a loving God.
It did have the theme of faith, though, and I felt like it had the most drama, spanned the most years, and overall just seemed longer than the others in the series, and more like a book than novella. Book 1 in the 5-book biblical historical fiction series by the New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love and A Voice in the Wind. In terms of an exciting story, Unspoken WAS that, and did give an interesting angle on what could have happened throughout Bathsheba's life, it just wasn't very biblical. This confused me, because if he Bathsheba's second son, then his other full brothers would have been even younger than him - yet none seemed to be even close to childlike at the time of David's death. There was Solomon, who was supposed to have been a mere boy when he became king, and yet seemed to have a lot of observant things to say well before his father's reign had ended. It also seemed highly inaccurate on account of the passage of time, and ages of Bathsheba's children.
Of the adaptations in this series (and I've still got #5 to go), I'd say that this one had the most creative license to it.
