This is book #2 in the silent year series. Angela Hunt is one of my favorite authors and never lets me down. In this book she takes us back into time with many descriptions and details that make you feel you are there. She tells the story of Leah, her marriage to Judah and how she becomes the woman to save the Maccabees people. The book takes us on a journey of heartbreak, difficult situations and the strength of Leah to make sure she is doing GOD's work.
I enjoyed the book as I always enjoy the way Angela writes, one chapter is of Leah and the next is of Judah. I always liked the way you get the opinion of the main characters. When I received this book, I started reading it and couldn't put it down. If you enjoy history, drama, suspense, love and respect then this book is for you. This book can be read as a stand alone as I have not read book #1 of this series (yet) and didn't feel that I was missing something.
