I loved her nonfiction book, When Life Doesn't Match Your Dreams, which I reviewed just a little while ago.Let's start with what I liked about this book. First, we see that Soloman had struggles with trusting in God. He had started worshiping wisdom instead of the One who gave him it. It makes him seem more human instead of this 'wise guy from the Old Testament' that is taught in Sunday school.

The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, so that we may follow all the words of this law. Each wife portrayed had a different personality and experience with Solomon, as would be expected. Seeing things from the viewpoint of his Egyptian wife was interesting, especially considering she is the one who had a palace built for her outside Jerusalem. As a result, we learned the author's speculation on how this came about to be mentioned in the Bible. While I didn't much like the personalities of the women, I very much enjoyedntheir stories. After switching the first panel on, climb down the stairs and you will see the second panel, then switch it on.I've always wondered why King Solomon in all the wisdom God gave him at the beginning of his reign, was foolish in disobeying God's laws in the end. Jill Eileen Smith explores this question in The Heart of a King , taking literary license since scripture doesn't expound on many facets of his life or those of his wives. As I read this fictional account of a true story, I had to shake my head at Solomon whenever he justified his actions in disobeying what God so clearly told him not to do. As in the case of his third wife Siti; she worshiped the goddess Bastet and he built her a palace outside the walls of Jerusalem for her to honor her goddess and to display Bastet's images. In his thinking, as long as it wasn't seen or placed inside the walls, it was okay. He also justified that since his heart remained true to Adonai, he could take many foreign wives, horses and chariots as gifts from the kings & dignitaries to keep his kingdom peaceful. For anyone who knows scripture, would know that Solomon was unwise in these things.

The Heart of a King sweeps the reader off to the Kingdom of Israel in the magnificent days of King Solomon. The stories of four of Solomon's wives that Smith published as eBooks are united into one large volume and are interwoven with Solomon's story as he goes from being the unofficial official crown prince. I loved getting to jump between Solomon's point of view and the four women because it gave me a better perspective of their lives. The author does a masterful job with portraying how the wisest man in history lost sight of God's commands as well as how his wives dealt with their situations. Their stories and emotions appear real and plausible. In the end, this was a book that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a good book to read. You won't be disappointed! David Loades has written: "Whether she used these words, we do not know, although they have an authentic, theatrical ring". [16] My feelings about this book are a bit all over the place! With four of Solomon’s wives featured as characters, I suspected I might struggle with the story on some level, but one of the things I love about fiction is that it gives me the opportunity to put myself in someone else’s shoes and understand their motives, even if I wouldn’t have made the same choices. In writing a biography of someone who is first and foremost a figuration, one that cannot by definition be transparent, the sensible course is to examine what exactly he’s a figuration of – and this is the approach Mayer adopts. Yes, she has some interview subjects: princely besties such as Emma Thompson and Nicholas Soames, but what they have to say is anodyne, while the positive remarks of staff members and campaigning associates is for the most part dreadfully dreary hagiography. On some of the hoo-ha the prince has triggered – from the “Spider” memos, to the seven boiled eggs, to his position on Islam – Mayer has had to rely on second and even third-hand testimony. However, this doesn’t matter, because by anatomising what the prince is emblematic of, she reacquaints us with – gulp! – ourselves. The four wives and their characters showed the complex man Solomon was underneath his wisdom, love for beauty and women, and passion. Naamah, his first wife and mother of his heir, was his first political obligation and passion of his youth though he didn't love her as much as she loved him. Abishag shared his curiosity, joy in song and poetry, and offered him comfort and unconditional acceptance. Siti, an Egpytian princess, captured him with her exotic beauty and intelligence that challenged his belief in One God. Nicaula, the Queen of Sheba, sought to learn from Solomon's wisdom and, in return, learned about Solomon's One True God and sacrificial love. The incorporation of David and Bathsheba into the story at the beginning was also quite delightful.
