Product Description
NAHUM-la ciudad de Jesús- abre una nueva etapa en la serie "Caballo de Troya." En esta séptima entrega del mayor norteamericano que viajó a la Palestina del siglo 1 todo cambia.Descubrir la trama no es aconsejable. Usted, probablemente, no dará crédito a lo que lea en sus páginas. Quizá tenga razón, pero no olvide que la verdad supera siempre a la ficción. Sí, podemos asegurarle que si se decide a leer NAHUM, sus certezas religiosas saltarán por los aires, afortunadamente. Nada de lo que se considera oficial y ortodoxo guarda relación con lo escrito en "Caballo de Troya." NAHUM es el libro número cincuenta de los escritos por J.J. Benítez. En septiembre de 2005 se cumplieron treinta años de la aparición de su primera obra, EXISTIO OTRA HUMANIDAD. Hasta el presente ha vendido más de seis millones de ejemplares.

enough..........2007-04-08
Ok, after telling myself I will not read another Caballo de Troya..curiosity got the best of me...
The book is not that bad, there are some interesting episodes to ponder upon...however, it also has some major flaws; like someone has written, it looks more like vessel to promote J.J. Benitez's own beliefs about UFO's and Urantia, instead of focusing in the two pilots odyssey...
Benitez presents a version of Juan el Bautista as a demented albino with red eyes, which I found sort of odd and not convincing. In my opinion, this was a desperate attempt to push "the against the church ways" agenda that Benitez likes to promote in all of his books, but it is quickly becoming old..
Another point is that Jesus was sort of missing in action most of the time, which made the book very different from his previous works. The author failed to forget that the pilots were not suppose to get involved in the events surrounding them. Frankly, the whole romance triangle of Jason and Eliseo with Jesus' sister Rachel, is more of a case of running of out creativity and expanding a story that needed to be giving the proper closure a book ago.
I really wish Benitez will get to the point with the story; 300 pages of failed romances, circles, diarrheas, Melkisedek visions and a crazy albino with bees? ..seriously.
Benitez stop milking the cash cow..
Caballo de Troya 7.......2007-01-18
This item was new and it came at the time promise.
Thank you!
Trojan 7 review........2006-03-17
This books doesn't exactly follow the pattern of the previous ones, and is not what you expected to read. The writer delays the main character experiences as to extending the chain of books on the topic. Yet the book pulls your attention to the end, and includes a "soap opera" part with the beautiful romantic part of the weird, but normal feeling that both "time-travelers" experience with the sister of Jesus, Rachel.
The last chapter was the one that I like the most, very spiritual, reveals the spiritual bias (beliefs) of the writer.
It's a wonderful chapter, though, in this series, and opens your apetite for more.
Caballo de Troya 7 (Nahum) (Caballode Troya).......2006-02-26
The book is interesting. A must if you have been reading the previous volumes ( 1 to 6). Not as good as the first one, but still, it is giving a lot of interesting facts (if you believe on it) about the unknown life of Jesus. I try to skip the foot notes, because, even if they give me a lot of information, most of the times it has nothing to do with the core issue. As a whole, I consider the book a good purchase.

Book Description
A twisted psychopath...a trail of violence...and a man and woman who will risk everything to stop him...
Jean Marc Andreas wanted what was his by right. He was seeking justice--and he would use any means to get it. Juliette de Clement, a confidante of the royal family, could aid his search for the priceless treasure so many had killed to possess...and died to protect. But in eighteenth-century revolutionary France, a world of power and intrigue, soldiers and assassins, royalty and rebels, death could come in many forms and from any direction, and none more lethal--or more likely--than from the person you trusted most.
Still, Jean and Juliette had no choice but to trust each other, because their very lives depended on it. Someone else was determined to have the Wind Dancer statue--and the legacy of power it bestowed. Someone whose twisted genius for evil was already wreaking a path of unspeakable violence that only together they could stop...even as they stood to be its next victims.

It was a difficult book to get through.......2007-03-12
I have enjoyed other books by Iris Johansen Countdown, Dark Rider, Lion's Bride and Wind Dancer, but I didn't care for Storm Winds as much as I did the others.
Early in the book Iris Johansen describes in a graphic and prolonged fashion a horrid scene of rape and butchery, for me those word visions stayed with me and I dreaded what was to come from the sadistic character that would reoccur throughout the book. It's possible I am to sensitive concerning violent acts upon girls and anyone that reads this review may ask why I bothered to continue with the book, well the answer is simple it's better to read to the end so I'm not left wondering what happen, a final resolution is always the best path to pursue.
LOVE IT.......2007-03-09
I LOVE IRIS JOHANSEN!!!! ALL OF THE BOOKS I HAVE READ OF HERS ARE GREAT!!!!! READ THEM, YOU WON'T BE DISAPOINTED!
One of the best..........2007-01-05
The Wind Dancer series of books has been my absolute favorite! If you love history and romance these are the books for you! I love how Iris researches the history before she writes it in. I could not put down any of the books in the Wind Dancer series. They are probably up there with the best books I've ever read!
storm winds.......2007-01-04
I ENJOYED THIS BOOK VERY MUCH. I DID'T WANT TO PUT IT DOWN.
Your typical historical romance.......2006-12-21
This is part of a series. I had no idea until I was about to leave my review. My mistake for not taking the time to find out. I enjoyed the book but it did take some effort to keep picking it up. It's not one that grabbed me like others have. I still gave it a 4 star rating. I hope you'll like it too.

Earth Science Made Simple is Simple.......2007-09-09
Great overview of the general topics in earth science. The only thing that I wish the book included would be question sets to review the material. I would use this book more as a resource for myself than my students.
Just What I Wanted.......2007-03-09
I was looking for a basic science book to introduce Earth Science to my kids. Too many of the books I looked at were "dumbed down". I just wanted basic coverage of science without politically correct commentary. This books gives nice coverage to the topics without obvious slanting towards anyone's agenda. I like it. (Yes, biomes are threatened, but I'd like to teach my kids about them before I talk about why they are threatened.) All in all, a good basic book.

Book Description
Archer Le Veq owes his life to the woman who rescued him from certain death at the height of the Civil War...a woman known only as "the Butterfly." Now, in the dark, waning days of Reconstruction, he needs the courageous and beautiful former spy...in more ways than before!
Zahra Lafayette thinks her days of intrigue are far behind her, until she is asked to go on one more mission. Posing as an infamous madam in New Orleans, Zahra must gather information to ensure the safety of the South's freedmen. The last thing she expected was to see Archer Le Veq again. He is as arrogant as he is handsome, but there is something about this dusky and debonair hotelier that sends her senses singing. Zahra knows she will need to guard her secrets, but no peril awaiting her compares with the treachery of Zahra's own heart – for, Lord help her, she burns to taste the man and to lose herself in his powerful embrace.

Historical Romance.......2007-03-09
Another Beverly Jenkins hit. I've just about read all of Beverly Jenkins books and trust me this woman can deliver the best...it's never a disappointment with anything she's written. This is a wonderful historical romance book, if you are interested in black history and what black people have done to make the many contributions that we've had to this country, read this book. Beverly does an extensive amount of research when she writes historical books, or any book for that matter and is excellent with providing further insight and websites to further your knowledge. This is another book that doesn't disappoint.
Transported Away.......2007-02-23
Indigo was the first book I read by Beverly Jenkins. Afterwards, I purchased most of her books. I've also purchased a couple of the books that she lists in her Author's Note. Her characters are so life-like. Sometimes I wish I could be transported back in time to see what life was really like for 19th century African Americans.
Beverly Jenkins WINDS OF THE STORM is an awesome tale. .......2007-01-20
Known only as the Butterfly, Zahra fluttered about the country providing information to the Federal forces and aiding in the rescue of runaway slaves and other men and women who required help. Zahra takes great pride in her small contribution to the civil war efforts, but she's never forgotten one of the men she saved - Archer Le Veq. The war is over but Zahra has been requested for a special mission - posing as the madam of a brothel in New Orleans.
Archer Le Veq owns a prominent hotel in New Orleans. During the war, he had worked for the Bureau of Military Information, collecting intelligence on the Confederacy. Until he was captured and came close to losing his life, only to be rescued by a mysterious woman known only as the Butterfly.
In the days following the war, the country is in a state of Reconstruction. For many it's a time of rebuilding and hope. For others, it's a time of a questionable future as they struggle to be accepted into society. Zahra was content with her life in South Carolina. She'd done her part to help her people during the war. She had no intention of going back into the service of the country, but President Grant requested Zahra and promised to look into the situation involving her parents getting their land back. Hoping the president would honor his word and help her parents, Zahra takes the assignment. In order to collect information involving the perilous situations that people of color faced, Zahra will travel to New Orleans posing as the madam of a newly established brothel. Nobody would suspect the proprietor of such an establishment of gathering information. To protect her identity, Zahra wears a domino which only seems to entice the men, including Archer's brother, Phillipe. Everybody wants to know the story behind the mysterious Madam Domino. Archer fully intends to stay away from the house of ill-repute until circumstances bring them together and he finds himself just as enamored of Madam Domino as everyone else. Unlike the others though, Archer has a feeling he's met her before, if he could only remember where . . .
Beverly Jenkins WINDS OF THE STORM is an awesome tale. You not only get a fabulous love story but you get further insight into the history behind the figures who struggled to help ensure every man, woman, and child of every race were treated equally. Zahra is one of the most memorable characters I've ever encountered in a storyline. She's strong willed, incredibly smart, and selfless. Archer is everything Zahra needs in a man - virile, sexy, and he accepts her and the roles she plays in an effort to help their people. There are other equally great characters in this story that do bear mentioning but that would make this review way too long. I highly recommend this book. You'll want to meet the other great characters from this period in our history.
This book is a follow up to Ms. Jenkins book THROUGH THE STORM. I'm sincerely hoping there will be a third book involving Phillipe. He's a dynamic character throughout the plot in this story who had me smiling with his antics. This is a powerfully moving tale that has earned permanent spot on my keeper shelf.

Once again . . ........2007-01-09
Beverly Jenkins is brilliant. I normally read modern-day novels, however, she is the only author whose historical romances I will read. Her historical romance always provide some insight into black history, which is valuable.
HOT! HOT! HOT!.......2006-09-16
Beverly Jenkins has done it AGAIN! Archer and Zahra are sizzling! I absolutely LOVED this book. I read it in a day and a half (because I had to stop and go to work!) and now I want to re-read it again. I think this may have been the best yet. The character of Zahra was exquisitely done. I loved her sense of humor and her ability to "play" with Archer Lev Veq. As a distinguished "gens de coleur" Archer was a highly revered man of color who was wealthy and was in a higher social class than Zahra. So of course, Zahra would never have ranked as a suitable mistress for him but once Archer laid eyes on her, he was totally smitten by the beautiful Butterfly (Zahra's spy name). The playful banter and the electricity between the characters practically leap off the pages and I couldn't get enough. I can't wait until she writes another. Hurry Beverly your fans are EAGERLY waiting!
IF you have never read a Beverly Jenkins book, you are missing out. She does an excellent job of weaving little known facts about African-American history throughout a sensual love story. I have NEVER read another author that has mastered the art of telling an intriguing and suspenseful story while maintaining the eroticism but B.J. has NAILED it! We love you Beverly!! Keep writing!!!
