I have been a fan of Ruth Price's Amish works since readingCourting Miriam (Out of Darkness - Amish Connections 3 (An Amish of Lancaster County Saga))andAmish Connections (Out of Darkness MEGABOOK 2- Amish Connections 1-3 (An Amish of Lancaster County Saga)). Like most readers I'm also a huge Charles Dickens nut so I was thrilled to discover 'An Illustrated Amish Christmas Carol' whilst browsing Amazon and Ruth's author page. I am pleased to report it is just as good as her other works. Hezekiah Geizhals is a fantastic Amish Scrooge with all the faults and human qualities that make him as memorable a creation as the Dickens original. The Christian message of the story is a perfect antidote to all the nonsense on TV at this time of year. It's a sweet sentiment without being too sugary - just enough edge, like Dickens. So sit back, fire up your Kindle and prepare to be enthralled by this beautifully written Christmas treat.
