The transformation that occurs in both of these characters as they encounter The One Who Sees in deeper and more meaningful ways was so good and written very well. Being able to see his point of view as the blood avenger was a twist that I liked. I liked that she had a different role than most of the women at her time, but it didn’t feel out of place or unbelievable at all.

She is so different, and yet very like her family. I was introduced to her in the previous books and knew she would be such a fun character. And the conclusion of the Cities of Refuge series did not disappoint. She is such an excellent writer, that every time I pick up one of her books, I always hesitate a little, because I don’t want to read through it too quickly! She writes so well, with a depth that I love. I gotta gush a little about Connilyn Cossette first. When an opportunity to pave a path to a Hebrew victory arises, can Tirzah convince Liyam to fight alongside her in the refuge city of her birth? Or will Liyam’s thirst for vengeance outweigh his duty to his people, his God, and the woman he’s come to love? After his vow to hunt down her killer leads to months of fruitless pursuit, his last hope is in a family connection that comes with strings attached–strings that force him to pose as a mercenary and rescue an infuriating woman who refuses to leave her mission uncompleted. But soon after she has infiltrated the ruthless Aramean commander’s kitchen, she makes a reckless decision that puts her and her allies in grave danger.įresh off the battlefield, Liyam returns home to discover his beloved daughter is dead. Strong-willed Tirzah wants to join her people in driving the enemy from the land of Israel and undergoes training for a secret mission inside the stronghold of Shechem.
