This is my favourite book series, Mark the Lion. Echo in the darkness is my favourite book in that series. It is full of historical description. The characters are well developed, this book I’ve read and listen to multiple times it’s full of encouragement, hope and faith. I highly recommend it and the rest of the series!

Amazing!

Francine Rivers has really done a magnificent job with this series, I would like to also commend Richard Ferrone for his incredible performance with all the voices that he did in this reading. Couldn’t stop listening. I’m very much looking forward to the last book in the series.

A great Christian historical novel. Thanks for doing the research behind it Francine Rivers. This makes it worth more than one not based on history

l thoroughly enjoyed this 2nd book of The Mark of the Lion series, and l think l spoke too soon on the first book, but that was my experience. Please read the entire series. I found out a few Bible truths and others have become more engraved and imprinted on my heart within the pages of this 2nd book. I can't wait to read the last one! Am happy that the same narrator's beautiful voice continues.

Oh wow!! I guess l spoke too soon.

"An Echo in the Darkness" by Francine Rivers is an absolutely amazing book that had me completely hooked from start to finish. I listened to the Audible series, and the narration was excellent, adding to the overall experience. The character of Hadassah, hidden under a veil, added a captivating mystery to the story. I would definitely give it five stars. The book explores themes of faith, love, redemption, and sacrifice, and the characters' journeys are compelling and thought-provoking. Overall, it's a gripping historical novel that I couldn't stop listening to.

5 stars!
