AMONG THE GODS (CHRONICLES OF THE KINGS BOOK #5) (LYNN AUSTIN)




Story Description: 

Fleeing King Manasseh’s tyranny, Joshua leads the faithful remnant to their new home in Egypt.  But as years pass, Joshua’s desire for vengeance becomes an obsession.  Blinded by hatred, he makes rash decisions, placing his loved ones in jeopardy.  

Amid Joshua’s turmoil comes an unexpected awakening of love – a love that burns so intensely it draws him from the dark inner seclusion where he often retreats.  But what will it take for him to grasp the great love his heavenly Father has for him…and for the chosen people of Judah? 

My Review: 

King Manasseh is an idol worshipper and ignores Yahweh’s commands much to his detriment in the end.  Joshua who was best friends with the king when they were children harbours an immense amount of hatred toward him and therefore suffers in all things in his own life.  Can and will these two ever get back to worshipping the God they’re supposed to worship and be able to live out their days relatively happy? 

This is the last book in the series and it was an excellent series which I would highly recommend to everyone!!
