H.B. Moore

   Posted by: GG Vandagriff   in Authors, contest

Heather Brown Moore is a dear friend and an extraordinary writer.  I have not yet read her Out of Jerusalem series, but I want to very much.  Her book, Abinadi, published in 2008 won the Whitney Award and The Best of State for Fiction in 2009.  It is extremely well-written.  This writer has the capability of putting you right back in time to the days of King Noah’s court.  She writes with rich sensory detail and, most importantly, her characters have depth.

Raised in a home where the Book of Mormon was a central feature, she has used all the FARMS research and available archeological detail to make her books as real as possible.  Having visited the Middle East many times, she is comfortable with describing the life of Lehi’s family’s journey as real as possible. 

This week, Out of Jerusalem:Land of Inheritance, is being given away on a contest on Anne Bradshaw’s Blog: Not Entirely British www.annebradshaw.blogspot.com.  Anne is the author of Famous Family Nights.  She is also a wonderful person, who spends much time reviewing and supporting her fellow Authors.  Many of us are featured in her book, which will be released very soon by Cedar Fort.

Heather and Anne are fellow LDStorymakers, and my life certainly wouldn’t be as rich without them.  Check out their books!
