About this listen
Best-selling author Angela Hunt Returns to Biblical Fiction.
An ambitious tyrant threatens genocide against the Jews in ancient Persia, so an inexperienced young queen must take a stand for her people.
When Xerxes, king of Persia, issues a call for beautiful young women, Hadassah, a Jewish orphan living in Susa, is forcibly taken to the palace of the pagan ruler. After months of preparation, the girl known to the Persians as Esther wins the king's heart and a queen's crown. But because her situation is uncertain, she keeps her ethnic identity a secret until she learns that an evil and ambitious man has won the king's permission to exterminate all Jews - young and old, powerful, and helpless. Purposely violating an ancient Persian law, she risks her life in order to save her people... and bind her husband's heart.
Esther marks best-selling author Angela Hunt's return to biblical fiction. In each novel she explores an example of a Hebrew Old Testament woman - a woman whose physical beauty influences those around her and can change the course of history.

Amazing storytelling
Captivating story, I honestly couldn't stop listening. The image of Esther becomes so lively. Strength and grace against weakness and aborration of Xerxes. I thought that Harbonah's storytelling was an interesting choice.
Loved the closing lines.

Amateur writing from a strictly narrative perspective
See title. Would rate zero if I could. It’s not the story, but the writing that has issues
