Tale of the Clans: Book Two
Rise of Betrayal is phenomenal for its suspense, success in rendering events and characters true to the history of Viking-era Ireland, exploration of living faith in Jesus Christ and crises of faith, and romantic appeal. Its settings – the Irish wilds, rivers, farms, and royal compounds – intrigued me and felt real.
M.N. Stroh’s style is contemporary, readable, but somehow old world. Sometimes she does things I don’t like, such as, the popular construction of verbs from nouns. However, ’tis a wee transgression for this competent lass and adds to the unique feeling of her at times beautiful prose. I recommend this novel.

It is, Chris! I knew almost nothing about Ireland during this time period and have learned a lot. We are well here. I pray your family is!

I know very little about Ireland at all. I do know it has some fascinating history.
It’s a blessing to know that you are all well. Thank you for your prayers. You are in mine as well.
I follow a blogger in Ireland you may be interested in following. Her name is Elizabeth Burke and it is always such a blessing to find such a Christian in a country where Christianity is severely waning.
Here is a link to here “about” if you are interested:

Nice. I think you’ll like her posts. I always like to “meet” Christians from other places, particularly Europe where Christianity has been so overrun by humanism.
