I was happy to be able to read this biblical fiction version of Noah's Ark, written in the view of Noah's wife, who in this book is known as Zara. The narrative is lively, showing that families aren't always perfect and all have things that need to be worked through. It was interesting to realize what an all encompassing job this ark was, not just the building of the ark, but rather, the feeding, cleaning and caring for the many creatures that were on board not to mention the humans, as well! And realizing we can't go to the local hardware or grocery story to find the supplies needed for such an venture. It does make you realize that God had a big hand in helping those building and preparing the ark for the flood to come. I loved this book and am sure that I will be reading much more from this author who has a very enjoyable way of writing that causes the reader to be quickly engaged in the story and events.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
