Christian Novel Review

Having always been an avid reader, since becoming a Christian I have found a wealth of reading material in Christian bookshops and in various second hand bookshops. I have found that in Christian novels one often finds truths that help in one’s Christian walk. I enjoy reading about how the various characters deal with life, and I also find I am the richer for reading a really good Christian novel. Certain authors, through their books, give you a real insight into their joys and struggles, which I find very interesting. The books which I am going to review are those which I have really enjoyed, and have read at least twice – some books, for example the “Mark of the Lion “ series by Francine Rivers, I have read at least five times each.

WHERE THE FIRE FALLS by KAREN BARNETT

In WHERE THE FIRE FALLS, KAREN BARNETT gives us wonderful descriptions of the beautiful Yosemite National Park, blended with insight into her characters that make a truly delightful read. One gets the overall impression of God's care for His children in the beautiful world He has created for them.
Olivia Rutherford is sent to Yosemite by Scenic to paint scenes for the magazine. She has history with the place which she does not want to come out. Originally Olivia Rudd, she has remade herself into the socialite Olivia Rutherford in order to sell her paintings to high society and to make enough money to send her twin sisters to a prestigious school. Will the real Olivia emerge in these surroundings, especially when she and the wealthy Vanderbilts go on the trail with Clark Johnson as guide to really feel the scenery she is painting.
Clark is also hurting. A pastor who was thrown out of his church after being falsely accused, he has thrown himself into his job, while he is wondering what it is that the Lord wants him to do with his life.
There is history, romance, adventure, suspense and more, making up a really enjoyable read. I cannot recommend it highly enough.
