A biblical fiction book that I read that was not done by a Christian author was Song of Hannah. I felt like it didn't really portray the characters as they are in the Bible, it turned Hannah into a selfish brat in the book. Generally I like biblical fiction, but not when it doesn't stay true to the biblical account. Ann Burton writes some good biblical fiction - she has an interesting take on the Deborah and Barak story.twiga92https://www.blogger.com/profile/16751327144782362475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33053817.post-31398885210661435562009-02-21T22:00:00.000-05:002009-02-21T22:00:00.000-05:00What a neat verse about your name.
