The Queen of Sheba

by Roberta Kells Dorr

Book Overview

Bilqis, the Queen of Sheba, is a woman as modern as her story is ancient. Constantly in conflict with priests and high lords of her kingdom, she longs for love but fears that she may lose her throne if she chooses the wrong man. In Solomon, she finds both love and a new faith, the covenant between man and woman and the convenant between humankind and God.

Customer Reviews

intriguing historical, biblical fiction

Roberta Kells Dorr has the ability to draw in the reader... I couldn't put this book down! Accuracy with biblical text is important to me, and this author does not disapoint. I have a better understanding of these biblical characters after this enjoyable read.

A Wonderful Recollection of Biblical Events

I am no scholar, but I know a great story when I read one. I was extremely disappointed to see that this author's books are for the most part out of print. The story was accurate and added details where necessary without violating the original point of the biblical passage. I especially liked the embellishment about the queen's feet. Anyone who has interest in the bible or just loves a great historical read would enjoy this book.
