Interesting fictional description of Manasseh's life. Intense but loved it!
Isaiah‘s Legacy isn‘t the first book I‘ve read by Mesu Andrews, not by a long shot, but it is the one I had the most difficulty finishing. That‘s nothing to do with her quality of writing, but instead due to the subject matter Andrews had to write about.

It is the re-telling of the Old Testament story of the reign of King Manasseh. Forced to become king of Judah at the age of twelve Manasseh leads Judah into idolatry. I liked how the author brought the characters to life. Sometimes the stories from the Old Testament can be dry and hard to read and understand. But Ms. Andrews did a great job making the history come alive.
I received this book from the author for my honest review.
Isaiah's Legacy by Mesu Andrews is a stellar #MustRead. I cannot recommend this book enough! #LiveUnchained #WaterBrookMultnomahFiction

Every time I pick up a Mesu Andrews book, I am astounded by her melodic poetry and the way she brings the characters and settings of the Bible to vivid, touchable reality. I recently read through the Books of Kings, Chronicles, and Isaiah and gleaned much from my studies but the author‘s book paints Manasseh‘s life in full color and helped me better understand the political turmoil and pressure during that time period.

The author builds on these extraordinary details to show who Manasseh may have been and his story is unforgettable.
Finally, some insight into how Shulle was being lied to since she was a young child.
While I was sleeping this morning (I worked last night.) UPS was delivering dreams to my door. This is my ARC but I've pre-ordered from Amazon in anticipation of the February 18th release day. That beautiful sweatshirt was a gift from Mesu. I'm blessed to serve on her team. 💙
Another wonderful biblical fiction by the talented Mesu Andrews! I loved and enjoyed this story of the Prophets and Kings Series immensely! The creative mind of Andrews continues to marvel me - the spellbinding plot, endearing characters, beautiful prose, while staying true to Scriptures - are all the goodness in Isaiah's Legacy.
Rating: 5⭐

I love Mesu! She is genuine. Here she is with her box of books. Isaiah's Legacy releases in February. I'll get my ARC copy soon but I've also pre-ordered from Amazon.
Isn't this a beautiful cover? Having read Isaiah's Daughter by @MesuAndrews earlier this year, I can't wait to read the followup in 2020. It'll be her 10th #Biblicalfiction release, and I've read all but the first two. https://amzn.to/2YPve4h #IsaiahsLegacy #christianfiction
February seems so far away ....
Check out this cover! Available 2020
