5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Book, Jun 22 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Mark of Salvation (Paperback)
The Mark of Salvation is an amazing read, taking an indepth look at the character and life of the former Templar Knight Ceallach. Umberger lives up to her amazing and riveting standard in fiction, having the novel joined in style and content to the series yet keeping the plot from becoming much like either of the first two books (which in my opinion have a very similiar plot). I loved the book, and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoyed her earlier works, or enjoys historical fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well Crafted..., Nov 3 2003
By mrsd - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mark of Salvation (Paperback)
The Mark of The Lion continues the Scottish Crown Series(no.3). You can read any of the books alone, but I think it helps to read them in the right order, if possible, because there are characters that spill over from one story into the next. I enjoyed this book because it has romance (love, love, love), drama (attempted kidnappings,sword fights), intrigue (why is he so scarred and bitter?), spiritual insights (God is faithful and good even when our world doesn't make sense), and historical facts(Scotland 1300's, lassies, weaving, lamb shearing). All elements that make a good story go (and keeps me turning the pages). The main reason I liked it, however, was because she tells a logical story. There are reasons that each character acts the way they do, and it makes sense. Have you ever read a book and wondered, "why is the character saying this or doing that?" Well, with this book, you won't be. If you want a well crafted book, read this. :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Great historical, Oct 19 2006
By Barbara Warren - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Mark of Salvation (Paperback)
Another great historical from Carol Umberger. Robert the Bruce is determined to drive Prince Edward of England's troops out of Scotland. The English are confident and well equipped. Countess Orelia Radbourne accompanied her husband, the Earl of Radbourne, expecting they would be victorious. Instead her husband is dead, Edwards troops were defeated, and Orelia is a captive of Robert the Bruce and the hated Scots. Cealloch, Robert the Bruce's foster brother is charged with guarding her. Cealloch has lost everything. He is not safe anywhere, but he has put himself at risk to serve his brother. In spite of themselves, Orelia and Cealloch begin to trust each other and form a bond neither wanted.
Carol Umberger knows her history and she weaves the story into a rich tapestry full of color and pagentry. I highly recommend this one.
