About this audiobook
A sweeping epic set in the harsh deserts of Arabia and ancient Palestine.
A war that rages between kingdoms on the earth and in the heart.
The harrowing journey of the woman at the center of it all.
Step back in time to the year of our Lord...A.D. 30.
The outcast daughter of one of the most powerful Bedouin sheikhs in Arabia, Maviah is called on to protect the very people who rejected her. When their enemies launch a sudden attack with devastating consequences, Maviah escapes with the help of two of her father's warriors--Saba who speaks more with is sword than his voice and Judah, a Jew who comes from a tribe that can read the stars. Their journey will be fraught with terrible danger. If they can survive the vast forbidding sands of a desert that is deadly to most, they will reach a brutal world subjugated by kings and emperors. There Maviah must secure an unlikely alliance with King Herod of the Jews.
But Maviah's path leads her unexpectedly to another man. An enigmatic teacher who speaks of a way in this life which offers greater power than any kingdom. His name is Yeshua, and his words turn everything known on its head. Though following him may present even greater danger, his may be the only way for Maviah to save her people--and herself.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I’ve always enjoyed Dekker’s writing, and this is no exception. Well written, the characters pull you in to the story, each with their own challenges to face and obstacles to overcome. Worth the read!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Oh what can I say? Can’t wait for AD 33
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A captivating book that has led me to Yeshua and God the Father! Glory be to Christ and ABBA Father for this inspirational book. PLEASE READ, and SEE for yourself!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The title and sub title had put me off this book . I was thinking I would be reading a book heaped with religion. Not something I would normally pick up for pleasure After hearing the introduction, I decided to give it a go. I am so glad I did . This book is fast paced with strong characters that I liked very much and an equil number I disliked very much. Reading a story taking place 2000 years shows quite quickly that mankind has changed very little,. It also shows that we humans never learn from the past. Sad!

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The idea of the story was a good one. Its an undercover book of religion. That I did not find appealing. To each his own.
