Editorial Reviews

Review

This is a book that has been written with great care and thought. It refers to many Biblical references, and ties major and significant historical events into a plot where fictitious characters are used to convey a profound message, as well as entertain. Recommended.- Readers Favorite, Hilary Hawkes

*~*~*~*

In The Castle by Lorilyn Roberts, Daniel, a young Jewish man from present-day Jerusalem, enters the seventh dimension where he learns that time is an illusion. In the seventh dimension, he finds himself in first centuryPalestine where he becomes witness to events surrounding the arrest and trial of Yeshua (Jesus). At the same time, Daniel himself is in danger, wanted by the Roman authorities as a runaway slave, and has escaped from prison.

Even knowing Yeshua is going to be betrayed and convicted, there is a sense of anxiety and horror experienced by Daniel as he watches the events unfold. But, for Daniel the story doesn't end there, there is a learning of things to come. The Castle is a strong account chock full of historical significance. It is filled with action and drama. It contains a lot of historical detail, sci-fi, fantasy, and even time travel. The story is technically well written. The fictional characters are strongly developed and the plotting allowed the story to build up at a steady comfortable pace. The dialogue is sharp, well done, and period specific. All in all, a good story very nicely done. -Reviewed by Paul Johnson for Readers' Favorite

From the Author

Half of "The Castle" takes place during the passion week of Christ. I guarantee, you will see the events during Passover in a way you've never witnessed before. Historical facts have been carefully researched and preserved. In the end, I hope readers will ponder the true meaning of salvation and consider the implications of the cross in light of eternity.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Seven Stars for the Castle, (Book 3 in the Seventh Dimension Series)
    Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2015

    The Castle: A Young Adult Fantasy (Seventh Dimension Series Book 3) This is truly an awesome series, and since I gave 5 stars to The Door, Book 1, and six stars to The King, Book 2, I must give 7 stars to this newest release, The Castle, Book 3. Once more, the familiar characters interact, and reveal more about the different time dimensions in which the story is told. I found the section about the Crucifixion the most compelling, having this literally earth-shattering event described through the eyes of a young man from 2015… The juxtaposition of other historical events, including the description of Caiaphas with a shadow of a swastika, made the story eerily plausible. Later in the book, it was also enjoyable to become reacquainted with some of the characters of Ms. Roberts’ children’s book The Donkey and the King…all of these swirling and interconnecting through different dimensions of time. Once again I find myself grateful that the series will continue, as well as impatient that I have to wait!

    5.0 out of 5 stars An Intriguing Read From Beginning to End
    Reviewed in the United States on May 6, 2016

    The Castle is another thrilling adventure by Christian author, Lorilyn Roberts. As with the other books of the series, the author pulls the reader into the story with compelling dialogue and endearing characters. The reader gets a very clear view of what it would be like to live in Jerusalem during the time of Christ, and from the extent of the details within the book, it is obvious that the author did her homework.

    I had the opportunity to read the first book in the Seventh Dimension series but not the second. That being the case, I had no real issues following along in Book Three though there were a few elements eluded to that left me wondering. I say this not in a negative way but rather to urge the reader to read each book in the series in order to gain the most from the continuing storyline. As much as I enjoyed the third book, I have no doubt that I would have enjoyed it even more if I had read the second book in the series as well. That is simply the nature of a good series!

    Overall, I truly enjoyed The Castle and would highly recommend it to young adult readers and those who may simply be young at heart. It is a clean read with a lot of adventure, romance, mystery and much more.

    5.0 out of 5 stars The Most Important Time in History
    Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    When helping my students write their college admissions essays, a question sometimes comes up: "If you could witness one event in history" or "If you could experience life from a different time" paired with "what would you choose and why?" As a Christian, I always think, I would like to have been on Earth when Jesus was on Earth—to see him, to walk with him, and to witness the historical events I have studied throughout my life. Well, author Lorilyn Roberts takes readers of "The Castle" back in time to Holy Week through the eyes of her lead protagonist Daniel. If you are like me and would have loved to have been alive during the time of Christ, then I highly recommend reading this book!

    Lorilyn Roberts is an excellent author. This series is action packed, and it keeps the reader engaged. This book follows the story of a young man, Daniel, who visits the past during the time of Christ.
    The historical details in this story made the story come alive. I enjoyed learning about this time period, and the story was refreshingly different.
    This book intrigued me so much that I will start the next book in the series tonight, the same day I finished this one!

    5.0 out of 5 stars What would it be like to live through the week of Jesus' crucifixion?
    Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2018
    Verified Purchase
    Still wrestling with the knowledge that Jesus is no ordinary man, while simultaneously remembering that Jewish teachers have for years denied any possibility that Jesus might be their long awaited Messiah, Daniel lives through the final week of Jesus life...and sees him resurrected. If seeing is believing, why are so many still unable to believe? And yet, how can you continue to deny what you see? As Daniel struggles to believe, particularly when Shale found it so much easier, I found myself wrestling with why those I love can't see what I see. I also found hope in Lorilyn's portrayal of a God who doesn't give up and fights on behalf of his people.

    This series just keeps getting better the further I read!

    This book depicts an interesting journey of the young man Daniel - we met him in the first two books - who has to find it in his heart, to choose Jesus. Unfortunately he is a sceptic, and doesn't believe easily.....will he find the peace of trusting Jesus with his life and that of his loved ones. He sure learns a lot in his time spent in the first century. An interesting read.

    The Castle's multiple plot lines keep the reader's interest on every page, and waiting for more to come in the next book. The historical research make the story come alive. Like Daniel, in the story, we each must come to grips with "Who is this Yeshua?"
