Babylons Falling by William G Collins

I received a free digital copy of this book from Booksneeze in exchange for a review. I hate digital copies: I like real books I can hold in my hand but this book looked so inviting to me that I made an exception: and Im glad I did. The writer tells the story of Daniel, one of my favorite people from the Bible, (hence the title of my blog, Walking Like Daniel. The writer takes a few liberties with how me decides what happened but dog-gone-it; he does a great job! I cross referrenced so of his speculation with a little History work; know what? Could have possible, maybe happened like he writes it! Thats Historical fiction to me and the only kind of fiction I will work with because I dont like to invest myself in things that never happened to people who never existed. This is a 5 star book!!

  1. You're correct that this is an outstanding book and that the historical references seem accurate for the period for which it is written. I also enjoyed this book (as we discussed). I am surprised at your review, however. (This is a review of your review). You are more talented of a writer than you let people see in this review. What gives? In a hurry? Now that I have figured out how to follow your blog, your reviews will be critiqued. Happy Writing!
