Acerca de esta escucha

Three-time Christy Award winner Davis Bunn collaborates with Janette Oke to evoke the tumult of first-century Judea in the wake of Christ’s crucifixion.

Although she prefers service in Pontius Pilate’s palace to a loveless marriage, Leah is betrothed to a Roman centurion. Before he can have Leah, however, he must go on a secret mission. But when a rabbi’s missing body sends Leah and Alban after the same answers, what they discover could change all they hold dear.

Loved loved loved it!

I have read this book before in paperback and enjoyed it so much that I wanted it in audio as well. I think the story is so much better than either of the authors has ever written on their own. I love the characters. I love the spiritual content. Even though the narrator doesn’t do much with voices, I still enjoyed her reading of the book.

The Effects of the Roman empire.

Loved it. I gained a new perspective on those present during the time of the crucifixion and the ascension of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Excellent story line

It took me a while to figure out where the story line was placed even though I know the Bible very well. Excellent job of story telling! I won’t spoil the story other than to say, it gave me a whole new look at the time after Jesus’ resurrection and before Pentecost. From a Gentile/ Roman POV. If it may seem a bit confusing at the beginning, keep on reading. The final result is worth the effort. I was in tears at the end. A very satisfying conclusion!

More people should listen to this Excellent book.

What made the experience of listening to The Centurion’s Wife the most enjoyable?

The story first and foremost. The authors wrote a great series. The narrator was great. Audible needs to record the other two books.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Both Leah and the Centurion. We can only assume from what little is said about this centurion in Matthew 8:5-10 and Luke 7:6-10 that he was a good man of great faith who had more to do with Christ than we are told in those short verses. I think he is a wonderful character on which to base a story about early Christianity and that this is a wonderful story.

What about Susan Lyons’s performance did you like?

Everything. I don't nitpick the narrator when I listen to a story. I'm sure there are other listeners who could critique the narrator better than I, but to me, she did a great job.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Many. I was especially moved when I first realized that the centurion in this story was the very one mentioned in Matthew and Luke.

Any additional comments?

People, you need to hear this book. With only 69 ratings, even though they are very good ratings, it is no wonder that Audible has not recorded the other two books in this series. Repent so I can listen to those other two books!

Definitely one of my favorite books

I love historical fiction books they are my most favorite type of books to read. I just finished listening to it for the third time and still enjoy it just as much as the first I have over 150 books and my audio library so I have a good opinion on narrators and I can say this narrator does a great job!!

Jeanette One out did herself!

This story takes you back in time to the lives of people who were around when Jesus was crucified. It helped me to put myself in the shoes of the Judeans. I'm sorry, but I did not really care for this speaker. Since I have now listened to other books and have heard some great speakers...I have to say she was hard for me to follow. I had to go back and listen to parts over to follow.

Well written. Needed more research

Talented writer. Very interesting story and well written.
We are from Israel and know the history better than most readers so small inaccuracies stuck out to us.
Peppers and oranges were not in Israel at that time nor were Eucalyptus trees. Also the chuppah in weddings was not a practice until around the 1300s. Otherwise a very nice way to “enter into” the story of the beginning of Acts.
