Executive reviews: "Amora is without a doubt, the most emotional Historical Christian story I have ever read." "The core concept of the novel feels like Christian forgiveness on a collision course with revenge." "The ideas of vengeance and forgiveness as two sides of a coin is a really compelling underlying motif for this novel." "I loved the inexorable pull of vengeance and betrayal pulling on all the characters. Knowing that the merciless hand of fate is moving towards Leo, creates the kind of delicious tension that drives stories in this genre." "We watch these characters struggle in different ways but all of them find their way to the same place at the end. I liked seeing the tension throughout the book as these moments of fate and decision wound together." "The novel does a great job zooming out for the big picture but also being able to really focus in on intimate human details and moments with these characters." "The blending of several distinct and quite separate storylines come together very well and provide an emotionally satisfying end to the book." "Amora is a heartfelt message of hope and forgiveness narratively crafted, with compelling characters wrapped in a historical, gladiator-style gut-wrenching saga." - Stefan Swanepoel, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Best-Selling Author, Author and co-author of over 50 books and reports
