Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - As Sure As The Dawn - Review
I read all three Mark of the Lion series in order. All three were very enjoyable. The amount of research Francine Rivers has done is incredible and I felt I was back in ancient times. The Christian message was very strong. However, due to the violence and promiscuity - the violence can be graphic but the promiscuity is not - some readers might not find this their cup of tea.

I found As Sure As The Dawn to be very enjoyable, although I thought it ended rather abruptly. I would recommend the whole series with the caveat of violence and promiscuity as noted above.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - As Sure as the Dawn (Mark of the Lion #3)
Great Book. I hated to finish it because it is the last of the series. I recommend it to everyone.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Great Author
This series of books has impacted my life in a way few others ever have. The author grips your attention at the very beginning and holds it through each of the three books in the series.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Could be read as a stand alone book
I enjoyed the very first two in this trilogy more, but this story was good, too. I felt this one could stand alone as it vaguely mentions Marcus and Hadassah and this one goes off on its own. This is the story of Atretes (the fierce warrior, captured by the Romans and turned into a savage gladiator until he won his freedom) and Rizpah (the caretaker of his son).

There was more humour with Atretes, but I still got frustrated with his behavior. He was a barbarian trying to learn how to behave. At times, he was cruel to Rizpah. They set out for their own adventure here that is completely unrelated to the very first two books in this set. It is well worth reading, though.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty good except for the double standards
I agree with the last reviewer that I thought this author's view of women is too grey and white. I also got the impression that women's sexual immorality is so more hideous than men's. Marcus lives a thoroughly indulgent and immoral life, but escapes unscathed except for a feeling of emptiness. Sister Julia does the same and is wickedly punished with disease and other miseries. Seems like the sexual double standard is alive and well for Christians: men deserve a slap on the wrist; women need to get whipped.
