About this listen

 Best-selling author and inspirational speaker Tommy Tenney teams with Mark Andrew Olsen to deliver a mesmerizing tale of historical fiction. Favorably compared to Anita Diamant"s The Red Tent for its unexpected plot twists, Hadassah is the fictional account of the Bible"s Esther, the Jewish peasant girl who became queen of Persia.

"One night with the King changes everything." This is the message Esther, later known as Queen Hadassah, wrote circa 492 B.C. to one special candidate for new bride to King Xerxes. Now, in present day, another Hadassah, descendant of the bridal candidate, has been given these stories, passed down from generation to generation, of Esther"s fateful time in history. It is a tale of persecution and benevolence, death and rebirth, and ultimately, an illustration of faith.

Tommy Tenney painstakingly researched the life of Esther to uncover the riveting details behind this woman"s courageous ascent to the throne. Award-winning narrator Suzanne Toren immerses listeners in the captivating world of ancient Persia.

Such a wonderful story!

Life-changing account of one of the greatest heroines of all time. I"m so inspired by Queen Esther"s faith journey and courage to answer the call on her life to save her people the Jews, from destruction, Her courage and faith ultimately saved the line of Judah of which David"s line on down to the blood line of Jesus descended. Such vivid examples of what the enemy meant for evil, God used for good and His glory. This awesome God we serve can do anything through anyone. Even a peasant Jewish girl named Hadassah. Such a well-written book! God-inspired to inspire all who have the privilege to read it.
