Ancient Fire (Book) - 1/30/2007 6:19:05 AM
When I read the synopsis of this book, I was immediately intrigued. Scuba diving in the Bahamas, time travel, ancient civilizations, a fantasy world… yep, this seemed to have a lot to offer.
I wasn’t disappointed. The author deftly spins a story featuring the notion that the Bahamas were once a major land mass the eventually became submerged in a violent earthquake. Although she never calls it Atlantis, the parallel is unmistakable. The civilization portrayed is exciting, and full of palace intrigues, revolution, sacrifices and mysticism.
The theory of “ancient astronauts” also plays into the theme, making this a riveting yarn of poignant eloquence. But perhaps the most interesting thing of all is how all of this comes together with Biblical history, reinforcing the oneness of God.
Ms. Korseness beautifully illustrates the culture and peoples of a bygone era, making you feel as though you were there. Her love for animals in general and horses in particular, is amply evident.
I recommend this book to people of all ages. It is a book the whole family can enjoy.
