Mesu Andrews brings the book of Daniel to life in this exciting tale. Not content to have her characters molded perfectly, without flaw, for her readers to wish they could emulate, she carves them out of flesh and blood and makes them fully human.

Mesu has a wonderful gift to make Bible characters come to life and she certainly hit it out of the park with Daniel! The background and history of what was going on in the Middle East socially, economically, historically, was very interesting.

This is an incredible retelling of the story of Daniel. The intricate history that is woven into the story teaches much while carrying you along in the plot. Giving Daniel a wife is a stroke of genius. This is not a story to be missed.
This was the other book that occupied my long run this morning. Andrews presents a fictionalized account of Daniel‘s experience in Babylon, and it is excellent. I loved it.
