Katharina: Deliverance by Margaret Skea
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Strong women in historical fictions are a favorite genre of mine, so when I got the chance to read this first book on the young life of German-born Katharina von Bora, I was delighted to give in exchange an honest review of the book. Author Margaret Skea successfully transports us back in time to the early 1500's during the turbulent changes happening with the then reformation of the Catholic Church by such theologians as Dr. Martin Luther. She delivers a compelling narrative of the life of young Katharina abandoned into a nunnery at the tender age of five until her marriage to Martin Luther in 1525.
