I am a huge Orson Scott Card fan, probably best known for his series about Ender Wiggin which was just turned into a major motion picture last year called Ender's Game, but this story is far from the science fiction realm. It chronicles the biblical story of Sarah and Abraham in the book of Genesis from Sarah's point of view. I liked that there were a lot of the bible stories that I grew up hearing about like Lot and his wife, and how Sarah laughed. I really like that he focused on what a strong woman Sarah was to have gone through life unable to have children in a day and age when that was how a woman's worth was measured. It was a beautiful love story and exactly the caliber of writing I expected from Orson Scott Card. I would definitely recommend this title, and many more of his too!
