Voyage of the Exiles

I loved the whole series, but book one is my favorite. Even if you're not big on the whole religion aspect, this book is an amazing mix of adventure, heartache, family values, and has great historical aspect. I love historical fiction, and I have read a lot of it, but this book was one of the prime examples of the Australian-Penile-colonies .I got totally caught up in the entire storyline, and I was unable to put the book down, and once I finished it, I read the rest of the series, then I read the whole series all over again. The characters are so well developed, and it's as if they were real people, living a real life, not like other books where everyone seems so fake, and the situations they get involved in are so fanciful and everything is just perfect. The author keeps things real, and shows you how like would have really been.It's a great book that I recommend for everyone to read.

This book is not a typical Christian romance. It's much better. The characters aren't thrown into improbably sappy situations, in fact, it's quite the opposite. These characters are flawed, abused, and not destined for your typical fairy tale ending. People get sick, die, have to live down doing bad things, and don't necessarily end up with the first romantic pairing they are put in. This isn't normal for a Christian romance and it's refreshing to find a book that is historically realistic and still very readable.I wait with great interest to see how things go now that the storyline has finally reached Australia.

This book was terrific. I could hardly put it down. I felt like I was right on the ship with the rest of the transportees.I liked the book so much I went out and bought the rest of the series. A friend's daughter is now reading them and is really enjoying them too.

If you enjoy suspence, romance, and excitment then you will enjoy Voyage of the Exiles. When George is arrested for pickpocketing and sent on a ship to Southern Whales he thinks all is lost, including his daughter Katy and wife Amelia, little does he know that his daughter is sailing on the same ship as the captian's maid and his wife is on another ship for being wrongfully accused of stealing! I'm sure you will like this book and the strong messange it shows you about faith in Jesus Christ through hard times when everything seems bleak.

Anyone that wants to read a book filled with romance, suspence, excitment, and renewed Christian faith should read this book, Voyage of the Exiles. I don't want to tell you too much and spoil the story, so all I will tell you is that the most unexpected things happen. When you least expect them to! I know that when you start to read this book you won't be able to put it down. I didn't! It has left me yearning for the next book in its series.
