The Star Prophecy by Joan Sowards

I enjoyed reading Joan Soward's "The Star Prophesy" and found it to be well-written and very entertaining. Anytime a book takes me some place I've never been before, it's a thrill for me! Who would've even thought about the possibility of a small group traveling across the ocean during the time of the birth of the Savior? Joan's novel helped me to imagine what that could have been like, and more importantly, what it must have been like for any fortunate and blessed individual to witness the Savior during his mortal life.

Star Prophecy is the story of a young man named Enoch, who desires more than anything to return to the land of his fathers far across the ocean to see the Christ child prophesied by Samuel the Lamanite. Almost everyone laughs at him for even considering such an impossible trip, but Enoch is determined to prove them wrong. He hires an older man, a ship builder trained years ago by Hagoth, to build a ship big and strong enough to withstand the mighty waters and takes off on an adventure across the ocean in search of his dream.

This is a charming story of perseverance, faith, and even a touch of romance. You will enjoy reading, The Star Prophecy!
