Book Recommendation - Shield of the Mighty
When it comes to Biblical Fiction, Connilyn Cossette is one of my auto-read authors. Her upcoming release, Shield of the Mighty was written in a particularly difficult time in the author's life, and the result is a beautiful story chock full of spiritual depth and truth. This book has the potential to be my top read for the year this year and one I can easily recommend to fans of Biblical historical fiction. Here's a bit about the book:
Captured by the Philistines as a young boy, Zevi has grown into a formidable warrior. As a captain in King Saul's army, he is assigned a crucial mission: Recruit soldiers, gather tribute for the royal coffers, and find talented artisans for the king's court. But when he is sent to Maresha, the town he was forced to leave as a child, he faces a startling truth--the elder council rejects King Saul and his campaign against their enemies.
Yochana, a widow and skilled woman of business, is captivated by a stranger who enters her perfume shop. Upon discovering he is not only a soldier but a captain responsible for enlisting young men to die in battle, fury and pain from her past loss resurfaces, threatening to consume her. But when Zevi's actions in Maresha entangle Yochana in his radical scheme, they're forced to confront present dangers and past scars.
