The best I have EVER read.......2007-10-22
Someone let me borrow this series and I loved it soooooooo much that I had to order a set of my own. I felt the need to encourage others to read it. It is by far the best I have EVER read. I love these books so much. The first part of the book is hard to read but when you get past 50 pages or so you will not be able to put the book down. PLEASE READ THESE BOOKS.. I promise that you will love them...
Very Interesting.......2007-10-17
I am only half way through the 1st book in the series but WOW! The first few chapters are spent developing the characters. I have quickly found myself not wanting to put the book down. I can hardly wait to see how the story unfolds. It is wonderful how the author incorporates Christian themes within a fiction book.
Another positive is that I think that this series would interest my husband as well. It doesn't seem to be written specifically for one sex or the other.
Cant Put it Down!!!.......2007-10-15
This series is one you will nto only not be able to put down ( buy the set... you dont want to have to wait for the next book to arrive) But its one that will touch your heart down to the deepest parts. I like these books becasue even though they are Christian Romances they are books that Anyone of any religion can enjoy. My Husbund and I both read them and provided copies for many friends of ours!
Amazing story!.......2007-10-07
An amazing story that brings you back to the foundation of your faith, as they did for me. I laughed, cried, and rejoiced with the characters as they went through their trials and tribulations. Kudos to Francine Rivers for bringing a remarkable story for generations to come!
an insight into 1st century Christians.......2007-08-27
This series was so great. Not only does it keep your attention in an entertaining way but it makes you think more about what it was like for 1st century Christians.

Abridged.......2005-08-31
The series was excellent. I can only hope to have the faith of the characters in this book. I read them on my wife's behalf, and enjoyed them.
I got the audio version of this series. Although the point gets across I think the abridged version shorts you many details that are important to the character building.
My Absolute Favorite.......2005-03-03
This trilogy is my absolute favorite set of books. I would recommend this book to everyone. Ms. Rivers makes the characters and the setting come alive!
The books are set in Ephasus and Rome in the early days of the Christian church. The time period comes alive. I gained a new appreciation for the people living in those time and the culture they existed in.
These books were also convicting to me by helping me examine how I am living out my Christian life.
INCREDIBLE.......2004-01-03
Read the whole trilogy, and just can't get enough, bought it in audio cassette, so i can listen to it over and over again
An historical journey through the eyes of early Christians.......2001-07-31
I have seldom read a series of books that kept me as captivated as 'The Mark of the Lion' trilogy! I read all three books in one week and could not wait to loan them to my friends. The characters became so real to the reader that you found yourself worrying about their fates and rejoicing in their triumphs! It made me stop to think that surely the Lord does want all men to be set free in the salvation he provided for us. I encourage anyone who is feeling that they are not special or deserving of God's love to read these books- the experience will make you feel wonderful.
READ THIS BOOK!.......2000-05-02
This is the best book ever written! I also reccomend you to read the two following books, they are just as good!

{VH1} HAS DONE IT AGAIN !.......2006-04-21
THIS IS A NEAT SMALL BOOK FOR PEOPLE WHO LOVE MUSIC AND WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE ALBUMS OF THE PAST 40 YEARS.
THIS BOOK TELLS YOU ABOUT THE 100 GREATEST ALBUMS OF ALL TIME IN THE {OPINION OF VH1}.IT IS NOT ABOUT THE GREATEST SELLING OR THE ALBUM'S WITH THE MOST NUMBER #1'S.IT IS PRETTY MUCH ABOUT THE LIVING AND NON~LIVING ARTIST'S WHO'S ALBUM/MUSIC HAS LIVED ON THROUGH THE DECADES AND "SO CALLED" CHANGED THE FACE OF MUSIC.
IT SHOW'S THE ALBUM COVER AND A STORY BEHIND IT.FROM EVERYONE FROM PRINCE TO BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN/"THE BOSS" AND EVERYONE INBETWEEN.THIS BOOK GOES GOOD WITH THE BILLBOARD BOOK OF #1 HIT'S.{AS LONG AS THE MUSIC PLAYS THE MEMORIES WILL NEVER FADE}

These "art biographies" are collected in five sections:
Ancient Monuments
Monuments to the Modern World
Renaissance Art
19th-Century Art
20th-Century Art Bibliographic entries and a subject index are included, making this the ideal resource for researchers seeking to find valuable analyses that enlighten both these famous works and the cultural traditions from which they have emerged as classics.

Tells What You CAN Do But Not How To DO It!.......2003-12-23
I just bought this book at a local Border's yesterday. I figured with the title of the book it would be exactly what I needed since I just got Photoshop Elements 2. However, once I got it home and sat down at my computer with it, I realized it is not helpful at all. It tells you a bunch of neat things you can do with the program, but never tells you HOW to do it. I would recommend the book by Phillip Andrews instead.
Don't buy this book.......2003-08-11
This book is full of "You can easily do..." verbiage with very little "how to" or examples. Anyone who is reasonably familiar with software can click and mouse-over to find out what the buttons do. That's about all the book covers. I wish I could recommend a better book but I'm still searching.
