Peter Jay Fernandez
In this novel, Joseph, a manservant of Abram Callcott, begins a journey of faith. One of Abram's passions is teaching the slaves about the Gospel. He is shocked, however, by the realization that Joseph has taught himself to read and write. Joseph's abilities show Abram that he may have misjudged his African slaves, but nothing can prepare either man for what is to come.
Through strong, colorful characters, Williamson examines slavery from various perspectives and explores the growth and change in the antebellum south. With a moving narration by Peter Jay Fernandez, The Dark Sun Rises will remind listeners of an era that defined and changed America.

Yes it was a movie in my head. Will listen to it again. So thought provoking. Makes you really stop and think about what it really was like in that era......puts you face to face with truth and blatant facts.What other book might you compare The Dark Sun Rises to and why?
The Red TentWas also very detailed, filled with history mixed with story telling as how it may have been woven together.
What does Peter Jay Fernandez bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
His voice is very dimensional, depth, lightness and drama.Who was the most memorable character of The Dark Sun Rises and why?
Each of the main characters were amazing and stood on their own. Such differentpersonalities, feelings, outlooks, and very believable.

I do like the question the book attempts to answer or raise...Christains justifying owning slaves, in the name of saving them. I think th he writing lacks real depth, but it is a hard subject to write about honestly. JMHO!
Whiny and unrealistic
