Petra: City In Stone by T.L. Higley



MY THOUGHTS:
I had never heard of this author, but the book really caught my attention. I was not disappointed. I loved the historical basis in this story that is from a time that I did not know much about. It had a great story that was full of action and adventure. It kept my attention from the first page till the last. You are sure to enjoy it as well!




ABOUT THIS BOOK:
Petra, the wondrous ancient city carved from the mountains of modern Jordan, is at the height of its glory in this gripping historical novel by T. L. Higley. A young widow, Cassia, and her son, Alexander, have arrived there seeking protection with her late husband's estranged family. But when Cassia discovers the man she married was heir to the throne, the power-hungry Queen Hagiru plots to murder Alexander so that her own child will someday rule. The queen, priestess of the sun-god, Dushrat, calls on demonic powers in her quest, but Cassia is prepared for the fierce spiritual battle to save her son, joining a Roman named Julian and his community of believers in the Jewish Messiah. Together they seek a mighty movement of God far stronger than any dark heart or city made of stone.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
T. L. Higley holds a degree in English literature and has written six previous novels. She lives with her family near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
