Author Janette Oke has been hailed as "the Laura Ingalls Wilder of the Bible set." The description seems apt, for Oke, like Wilder, is known for her homespun romance and historical novels with swift-moving plots and wholesome, old-fashioned family values.
Oke's 1979 debut novel Love Comes Softly came out of nowhere to set the publishing world on its ear; that book sold more than a million copies and blazed the trail in what freelance journalist Carol Toller, writing in the Toronto-based Financial Post, has described as the $3-billion-per-year Christian publishing industry.
