What others are saying:
“When I first found out about this book, I was incredibly intrigued. I was not disappointed. It was such a unique point of view for the story of Merlin. I am looking forward to how the next book progresses with his growth in wisdom and knowledge to help Arthur in his destiny to be king of Camelot.” - E.M.
“I love this series, so creative and unique in it's telling. Jesus, Merlin and Arthur merge in this inspirational read. Merlin and Arthur are mistakenly sent back in time. Join them in their search for Jesus, their only hope of returning to Camelot!.” - M. W.
“The Author melds Arthurian legend and the last months of Jesus Christ rather nicely. The story is well written and by the sixth chapter, I couldn’t put the book down. I cheered Merlin and Arthur on as they searched for Jesus, not only so the two heroes could return to their time and place, but also for what it meant for them as individuals. Plenty of parables and biblically accurate encounters with citations. I especially liked the discourse surrounding why Jesus had to die.” -

“This book is a different twist to the type Arthur and Merlin story, and it was a beautiful one. Renae Edwards propels two familiar characters back in time to Biblical times. Drawing on passages of Scripture, the reader follows along with Merlin as he seeks a way home and struggles against his own desires. I look forward to see where this series continues especially since Merlin has been drawn even further back in time to allow him gain the knowledge that he needs to help direct Arthur on his own path to become king.” - A.

Praise for Whispers of Albion:
Praise for Whispers of Albion:
A prequel to the author's Arthurian series (which truly has an emphasis on Merlin and not Arthur) uses scripture and familiar characters from the Gospel to explain how familiar artifacts reached Albion. . .It's a short story, but it helps to set up more of the story that is explored in Hope Reborn, the first book of the series.

I want to say that I am so happy that the story goes on in a series. I began reading this story and it was so captivating and well written that I could not stop until I had finished. I cannot wait until the next installment. With its biblical roots and the creative genius of Renae I am sure this will be a hit. I can see this as a TV or movie. For a quick inspirational read you can't go wrong!

The language is so descriptive and vivid, you feel like you're there right along with the characters. I wasn't sure if I would like a story that combines actual Scripture with fantasy but the author stayed true
to Scripture while simultaneously creating a fantasy of a totally different time and place...Can't wait for the next installment!
