> 24 hourI loved this book! H B Moore did a great job of sticking to the original scripture story, while bringing the story to life. She helped me understand what it would be like to live in the days of Abinadi and Alma. While we dont really know Abinadis age or family situation, this gave me a fresh perspective and made learning about it fun. The information about the time period is well researched and sited. The characters are engrossing and I love them!

> 24 hourVery interesting read! This book brought the story of Abinadi to life. The author obviously did a great deal of research to make the book as authentic as possible. The factual parts of the story are blended with the fictional seamlessly. Because the actual events involved some very wicked people and practices, there are some unsavory parts to the story. But the author handled it well; there is nothing graphic or inappropriate. Beautifully written.

> 24 hourI loved this book. We know so little about Abinadi and really liked how HB Moore portrayed him. I cant wait to read Almas story.

> 24 hourThis is surely on my Top 5 list (and with much competition since I am an avid reader for the last 73 years). I love Ms Moores scriptural novels, but this is, by far, my favorite. How emotionally touching it is to learn, in more detail, of what these great leaders endured... the heartache, the inspiration and, yes, the torture! It makes me appreciate my beliefs all the more and increases my faith! While Abinadi was a prophet from the Book of Mormon, one does not have to be LDS to enjoy the book. Highly recommend it to everyone!

> 24 hourI first read HB Moores series Out of Jerusalem and really enjoyed them. However, once I read Abinadi, I was hooked on anything she has written!! Abinadi takes an intense story and creates a romantic, exciting adventure story that will have you laughing and crying! Based on the story of Abinadi found in the Book of Mormon, Moores unique twist to making the main character a young man with everything to lose, just brings the story to life. The detail of ancient daily life and traditions, along with her colorful wording makes for interesting, enlightening and delightful reading! I recommend this book to everyone I talk to- literally! You wont be disappointed in Abinadi!

> 24 hourSet in Book of Mormon times, Abinadi explores the (fictionalized) life of the prophet for the three years before he was martyred. Moore includes wonderful gems of cultural history, including the clothing, the food, and even a wedding ceremony. The story line itself is obviously predictable, since the fact that Abinadi dies by fire is...well, a fact. The love story is also predictable: Raquel loves Abinadi but thinks he wont like her because shes rich and not a believer, and Abinadi loves Raquel but thinks she wont like him because hes not rich and is a believer. Any questions how it will play out? Didnt think so. Perhaps the most interesting character was Alma. I was a bit surprised at what a big part he had to play, since I thought it was Abinadis story, but it sets up the second book, Alma, quite nicely. Alma was so multi-faceted and interesting. Raquel and Abinadi were far from flat, but they definitely werent as dynamic. Their romantic relationship didnt feel quite genuine or real to me, until the end when they said goodbye. Moore did a good job of capturing the emotions of a husband and wife separating for a time. The book fits the genre of historical fiction. Not a heart-stopping thriller with nail-biting page-turners, but historically fascinating and enjoyable. I look forward to Alma. I think this book will be even more satisfying.

> 24 hourThe actual book is outstanding !! But the book itself looks like it was used before. I received the book with dog-eared pages and stain on it. Not too happy with that.
