Book Info

About the book: From the Acclaimed Author of Chronicles of the Kings After decades of exile, the prophesies are coming true---King Cyrus has declared the Jews may return to Jerusalem. Iddo, a priest, is sure this is a sign of God's renewed favor. For too long they've remained in Babylon, and many, including Iddo's sons, are losing the faith that sets them apart. And so only a few choose to leave everything to return---return to their home and their God. Nothing about their journey to the Promised Land is easy. As hardships mount, even the faithful, like Iddo's beloved wife, Dinah, question the sacrifice of following God's leading. Zechariah, Iddo's oldest grandson, feels torn between his grandfather's ancient beliefs and the family they left behind. But one life-changing encounter with the Holy One gives him insight that will change Zechariah---and history---forever. Bringing the Old Testament to vibrant life, Return to Me tells the compelling story of two men living by faith in the midst of doubt, the women who love them, and the faithful remnant struggling to rebuild their lives in obedience to the God who beckons them home.

My Review:

Lynn Austin does an excellent job of bringing to life the Old Testament in her newest book, "Return to Me," which is book 1 of her new series - The Restoration Chronicles. At times it is hard to really imagine life during Biblical times and even harder to understand and read through some of the books of the Old Testament. "Return to Me" is such an excellent piece of Biblical fiction as it stays true to the Biblical truths and really makes the reader interested in the story as well as wanting to go pick up the Bible and reread these passages. This is a time period of such turmoil and changes for the Jews and it comes so alive and real thanks to Lynn Austin's writing.  I also have to say that I love the cover for this book, I know to not judge a book by its cover, but this one is truly perfect for the book!
