A Trackless Wilderness
David: God’s Chosen Crucible is a biblical, historical novel unmatched by others and quite refreshing in its delivery. As the author shares, these works are taken with poetic license and for the sole purpose of glorifying God. Meticulously captured! Joseph Ganci delivered this follow-up piece in response to his first book, Gideon: The Sound and The Glory, and quickly grabs your attention with details, depth, discernment, and dignity. Although our holy bible is the primary source of God-breathed information and wisdom, Ganci has represented the story of David, a young farmer/ sheep breeder turned anointed king of Israel, tastefully and with ease.
Ganci’s novel of David reads like a movie on a page of carefully crafted dialogue and details as his words are charismatic, easy-to-follow, and entertaining. The book leaves a lasting effect on your remembrance of David and his struggles. How was he chosen? Who were his enemies? How did he become king? Was David a political person, a warrior, or both? Was he successful? What is his relationship to King Saul? How were the Philistines and Israelites involved? Learn more about David as you learn of his battles through forests, the mountains, wilderness, and against mighty foes.
What makes the reading so relatable is the conversations amongst the many characters and the readable, concise language. Ganci’s portrayal brings ancient events and characters to life while preserving the integrity of the facts. Children of all ages, nine to 99 years old, would benefit from this piece, as it leaves room for discussion and further understanding of King David and more. This historical tale would benefit a bible/ book study, a church group, homeschool lessons, and individuals seeking another way to process biblical events. Ganci knows his bible well and shares his gift of writing this action-packed, exciting account for all to enjoy.
