King's Shadow

De: Angela Hunt

Narrado por: Rachel Botchan, Alice Jones

Two women occupy a place in Herod's court: the king's only sister, Salome, a resentful woman who has been told she is from an inferior race, and her lowly handmaid, Zara, who sees the hurt in those around her. Both women struggle to reach their goals and survive in Herod the Greats tumultuous court, where no one is trustworthy and no one is safe.

Great Story line.

I really enjoyed the story. it was very well executed. The timelines all met, with the History I had learned. I enjoyed it very much. I still had trouble, with the voice distinctions of some of the Characters.

Good book

Great historical events l love it so much I will recommend to everyone who ask

King's Shadow

In the beginning, I had a hard time getting into it because it's very political as far as what was going on during that time. This is not necessarily a bad thing-- I just had a hard time paying attention. As I got into the book and the characters, I really enjoyed it and I learned a lot!

Beautiful story

I really love this story. It was a little different from the previous books I had listened to but just as enjoyable.

Dark But So Was Herod the Great

I enjoy this author very much & have picked out her series of books to listen to in sequence. I had a little problem with the back & forth voice volume between Herod & Salome, but finally adjusted.

Great book!

enjoyed all of it! character development was top-rate & readers were amazing! ENJOY THE ENTIRE BOOK!

Interesting

Interesting story line. Historical fiction. It is something to think about to be alive during those days right before Jesus's birth.

Reminded me of a soap opera

I found this interesting once I finally got about chapter 14. I almost put it down before that due to the constant bickering, unrest, backstabbing, etc. it got much better after chapter 14 and the last few chapters were the best. it does give good insight to the facts that occurred during that time. I also prefer stories that have God or Jesus more prominent.

Favorite Author

I was so enthralled by the historical take on the bible. This is the fourth book in the series, to make a book out of the prophets kept me wanting more. Author is one of my favorite now and so are the Narrators. I search by author and also by narrators. If you enjoy the author, you have to also like the narrators.

Loved this and Narration

Loved this story from the perspective of Herod’s sister & her Hebrew handmaiden. Very interesting. Loved the narration. I believe it’s really Suzanne Toren whom narrates Salome and she is one of my favorite narrators. Loved this!
