highly to recommend!!

I read this series a couple of years ago and I absolutely loved it - my husband was fascinated as well and he usually doesn't read fiction at all. It is fascinating how the author combines history, fiction and christian values. Myself I was deeply touched and moved by the different characters - I lived right with them. Since reading these books roses are even more special to me. After finishing one book I couldn't wait to start with the next one!

Excellent book! Truly engulfing--I couldn't put it down!

This is one of the first Christian fiction books I have read--it was a great first pick. Michael Phillips has a great way of setting the stage in this story--giving just enough details for the reader to get a firm grasp of the setting and characters without being overly burdensom. The historical background was extremely interesting as well. I was actually transported back in time. I was also truly amazed at how Michael Phillips intertwined the gospel of salvation into the story in a realistic and relevant way. After reading this book, I feel compelled to read every other book from Michael Phillips--especially if they are this good! I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

What an excellent book!

In The Eleventh Hour Phillips manages to capture the emotions so long untold. This book begins pre-WWII in Europe with a loving, Godly man and his beautiful daughter who is still more child than woman. After they meet some American diplomats who are soon invtied for a visit you come to Lebanshaus, or the House of Life. Baron von Dortmann and his family have always opened their doors to everyone seeking spirtual and physical peace. He teaches his new friends the gift of God and his daughter Sabina helps her new friend Matthew in many ways. Secrets unfold along the way making this book suspensful near the end where the remarkable power of God will show itself in full force as it does throughout the book! Anyone who seeks spirtual fullfillment, wants to learn about Nazi persecution or just likes Michael Phillips will most certainly not be dissapointed in this book.

One of the best series I have ever read!!

I am absolutely fascinated by historical ficiton, and the Secret of the Rose series is no exception. This book became real to me, the characters like actual people who would hear me when I yelled at them or laughed at the things they did. I read the first one on vacation in another state, then could not find the second book. The ending leaves you wondering what is going to happen next, and satisfies you when you finish the series. It is a truly amazing series.

What an amazing book!!!

This book really left you thinking. It brought to light many things that you never noticed about things before. I will never look at a rose the same way again. You have to read the next book after this one! It really left you wondering about Sabina, Matthew, and Baron von Dortmann. A must read!
