“[An] interesting, fast-moving tale of redemption, forgiveness, love, faithfulness, and nurturing.”
Library Journal
The fifth book of multiple Christy Award winner Lynn Austin's Chronicles of the Kings series, Among the Gods is a stirring tale of faith and forgiveness. The sweeping, biblical epic resumes immediately after Faith of My Fathers' turbulent ending.
While leading the exiled faithful into Egypt, Joshua's yearning for revenge against the tyrannical King Manasseh smolders into an obsession-his wrath contained solely by a simple yet courageous servant girl's love. After every attempt at exacting retribution fails, Joshua struggles to renounce his hatred and accept that God's plan is for mercy, not vengeance. Thus the redemption of Manasseh, impossible though it may seem, is exactly what God intends-and will not be fulfilled without Joshua's clemency.
Austin's sublime gift for bringing sacred scripture to life, elaborating upon historical detail with remarkable depth and ingenuity, shines forth in Among the Gods.
