Summary

2009 Retailer's Choice Award winner!

In this compilation of the five books in the best-selling Lineage of Grace series by Francine Rivers, we meet the five women whom God chose - Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, Bathsheba, and Mary. Each was faced with extraordinary - even scandalous - challenges. Each took great personal risk to fulfill her calling. Each was destined to play a key role in the lineage of Jesus Christ, the savior of the World.

Hugely Disappointed

Having just listened to Redeeming Love and Scarlet thread and being absolutely captivated, I was delighted to find the Lineage of Grace series has been condensed into one book for one credit.. Wonderful... But oh my I have returned it as the narration is dreadful; diction is shocking, barely any change in character voices, stilted and dull... such a shame, it could have been wonderful.

This book restored my hope in God

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found it captivating and it also helped me to see things from the perspectives of others in the bible. One thing I can take away is that God always has a plan and situations work out for the good of those who love Him. This is possibly the best book I’ve read in years.

Grace unmerited

The Lineage of Grace Grace indeed, shows the magnitude of Gods love. it does not matter who you are or what you have done as long as you acknowledge your sinfulness and accept the Grace of God extended to you thru love .

Orpah NOT Oprah!

Agree with lots of other reviews. The stories are great but the narration is particularly frustrating. Completely mispronouncing a character's name just makes me think the narrator didn't bother to check her material before she recorded.

Disappointed!

I loved reading this book and was so excited to find it as an audio book, but I am utterly disappointed by the horrible narration. Diction and pronunciation put me off so badly that I could finish. It's such a same, the stories are so beautiful.

Francine Rivers is always worth a read

I have never regretted reading a Francine Rivers book and she makes understanding the Biblical stories relatable and easy. However, the narrator was very disappointing. Too many words (English words, not Biblical words) were mispronounced, annoyingly so. I expect the narrator to have read the book before recording it and sought pronunciations beforehand. Eg, surreptitiously, especially, and a wealth of other words I cannot remember off hand. Plus there was a lot of repetition of sentences, which was disruptive, and some sentences that were not completed. This is probably the editing of the recording rather than the narrator.
I almost returned the book (and haven't finished reading the 4th one yet) but the storylines redeemed it. Anyone who will find the constant errors grating, would be better off purchasing a hard copy.
