MAITLAND, FL— Sandra C. Ike’s new book, Samson and Delilah ($9.99, paperback, 9781626970052) is a comic book with traditionally drawn illustrations that visually communicates the chapter of Judges 16 from the holy Bible. Readers will gain a clear understanding of one of the Bible’s most notorious love stories. Although the book encompasses many themes, the most prevalent are those of love and justice.

“I hope that readers will be captivated by the impact the characters had on each other,” states the author. “For example, [there is] the impact that God (the Lord) had on Samson and through Samson impacted the Philistines, His (the Lord) and Samson's enemies, the impact that Samson and Delilah had on each other. I also hope that [readers] will love the illustrations and be inspired to use their creative talents too.”

Sandra C. Ike, author and illustrator, is a B.A. honors graduate in graphic arts from the University of East London. She has been drawing since the age of nine and has a passion for book illustration. She has G.C.S.E. qualification in English language and literature; she enjoys reading the Bible, biblically inspired books and poetry.
