GoodBookStall Review:
For all who like a light novel to take away on holiday and like to think about the ‘story behind the story’ this is an enjoyable book. It is not a classic, but does look at the life of David from the point of view of Michal, Saul’s daughter. Of course most of the story is conjecture – although the author is careful to include the main parts of David’s life as found in the Old Testament – and looks at how Michal and Saul reacted to David in the events. It is easy to read and if you have some holiday away time it wouldn’t go amiss in your bag. Probably more a book to appeal to ladies – but I wouldn’t want to stop men reading it as well!
