Summary

Can a religious separatist and an opportunistic spy make it in the New World?

Mary Elizabeth Chapman boards the Speedwell in 1620 as a Separatist seeking a better life in the New World. William Lytton embarks on the Mayflower as a carpenter looking for opportunities to succeed - and he may have found one when a man from the Virginia Company offers William a hefty sum to keep a stealth eye on company interests in the new colony.

The season is far too late for good sailing and storms rage, but reaching land is no better as food is scarce and the people are weak. Will Mary Elizabeth survive to face the spring planting and unknown natives? Will William be branded a traitor and expelled?

very good

I enjoyed the historical story, the trials and wretchedness of the journey I also the love story. I understand the religious content because they were a religious cult but all the bible bashing really became repetitive and I found myself fast forwarding lots. Great narration.

Nice story.

Nice story. I nearly gave up on it out early on as it seemed a bit shallow and the narration put my teeth on edge. Slowly I got into it and accepted the narrator’s seemingly quirky inflection and emphasis as an accent. It wasn’t great literature, but a good story, and gave some reality to the horror of that journey and their reliance on the Lord.

wonderful

This was a wonderful story filled with realistic trials and triumphs. And best of all God's words and edification.
The narration was ok and storyline kept me interested. With my imagination I could picture it all. 5 stars Michelle Griep's books are never disappointing. Until next time God bless.

Such a weird intonation

The really strange intonation of the reading detracts from the story. The reading of the number twenty as tweny ( and there were a lot of tweny in the dates at the beginning of each chapter) drove me mad!

an ok read

Not my usual read but it was free I think
