Even though I knew how this series would end, this book kept me in suspense as it continued to unfold. The series gave me insight into the struggles of the Jews in finally having a portion of their land returned to them to become their own country. The story did move slower than the previous 4 books in the series. My favorite part of this book was the Epilogue (dont go there before you finish the book!) Although the Key to Zion was the conclusion to this series, Israels story continues toThis book made me realize how I don't like Ellie much and how little there is to her character. She's the focus of the first book but has very few scenes in any if the others (some for very specific reasons). But it seems like she's only capable of a handful of emotions: fear and stubbornness. She's constantly saying, "David, I'm scared." or freaking out about something and he has to calm her down or crying. It's never fun to see the flaws in something beloved. But the odd thing is, even though
This book is the last in the series of 5 that covers the statehood of Israeli in 1948. Great historical information on the war between the Jews and the Arabs during that tie frame. Covers all the historical figures and captures the romance and atrocities during a time of was. I really enjoyed the information i got from these novels since I was 8 in 1948 and remember hearing the names portrayed in these books. Enjoy!
I couldn't believe how interconnected the spies, leaders, and players in the story come to a finality. This story wants you to hope for the best, but expect the worst! Loved the history of how Britain, U.S., Jews, and Arabs all have their interest in Jerusalem.
I am truly sad for this series to end. It is very fast paced with all 5 books fitting into just 6 months. This was an extremely volatile time. The world was still trying to process the truths of the Holocaust and what should be done to help all the suriviors. A Jewish homeland in Palestine was a kind of dream and one that came true throughout this series. These characters are wonderful and will get under your skin in such a great way. Rachel and Ellie were my favorites. Rachel went through so
WonderfuLI will miss these people, that I have grown to love! This is the last of five books and I wish it has gone on and on!
Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous series. Sorry to see it end. I have learned so much about Israel's struggle for statehood, and I now plan to try to find the preceeding series (World War II) and read them. (A friend lent me the 12 A.D. Chronicles series, and those got me hooked.) These authors are talented and their books are inspirational, informative, educational and heart-warming. I can't recommend them too highly.
