Historical Fiction

Date Published: 1/18/2024

Narrator: Deborah Balm

Run Time: 15h 30 min

 

 

It is 741. Only one thing stands between Charles the Hammer and the throne—he's dying. Despite his best efforts, the only thing to reign after Charles's death is chaos. Son battles son, Christianity battles paganism, and Charles's daughter flees his court for an enemy's love.

Based on a true story, Anvil of God is a whirlwind of love, honor, sacrifice, and betrayal that follows a bereaved family's relentless quest for power and destiny.


 




Review

This is an enjoyable story, fast-paced, and well-constructed. I found it interesting,

There was great attention to detail and that was very important as it was based on a true story.

The tension between the different characters is very believable. And the aftermath is realistic as well.

I loved the production. The narration was easy to get lost in.
