A review by scaleraa
The Prophets by Robert Jones Jr.

2.0

I'm giving this 2 stars because I really loved the idea of the story - following the endangered love of two enslaved men - but I could not get into this book. I think what I read is just the tip of the iceberg but there is some really graphic violence in this book that I just couldn't read. I enjoyed the perspectives of the main characters but there are so many other POVs that we read that hardly any of the book is actually dedicated to them. There are also random bible verses thrown in, which didn't really work for me either.
