Customer Reviews

What an intriguing book!

With a bit more fiction than her other books Traylor fills in the significant gaps in the Biblical biography of Mary Magdalene to guide the reader through some of the seedier realities of Biblical times and with ascending Biblical integrity helps us to understand the heart of the woman who so loved the Lord.

Most misunderstood women in the Bible

This is another great Biblical novel by E. Traylor. I have read them all, and truly enjoy the way the author brings the characters to life.

A great read!

I love everything this author puts out. This book is no exception. I call it and anointed imaginaton.

Good Story!

This is a fictional look at Mary Magdalene's life, but does a great job of filling in what her life could have been like, the devastation her life was in, and the saving love and power of Jesus, walking through all her misunderstandings of who He is, until she began to see and understand who He really is.

Fascinating!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. When I read Christian fiction, I keep in mind what the Bible has said about the subject of the fiction I am reading. Ellen Gunderson Traylor keeps the Bible in mind when she writes her books. She brought Mary Magdalene into my reading room in a very real manner. It is not only enjoyable to read this book, but you come away from the book feeling that you not only know Mary Magdalene better, you can actually feel the thankfulness that she has for God's grace. Mrs. Traylor has taken one of the most talked about people in the Bible and brought her into your living room. I had to really ration the time that I spent reading this book because I did not want to put it down. I wanted to read it from cover to cover in one sitting. Too bad that I had work that I had to do because I would have not put this book down. If you enjoy Christian fiction, I would heartily recommend this book!
